    Being the type of father I am, you know, all up in his business..because, my house, my rules, and until you move out there is no such thing as privacy...I had it set up for me to monitor his texts to make sure things weren't going on that were too out of hand at his ripe old age of 16. He's 19 now.

    I was skimming through the usual texts of LOL, IDK...basically the slew of poor grammar and lacking the ability to type out a whole sentence when I ran across the him texting with one of his several girl interests and they were doing the whole "getting to know you" by asking and answering questions. She asked him who his hero was, his answer, "My dad. Honestly...it has to be my dad."

    "Dad, Can I talk to you? but first you have to promise not to be sarcastic or facetious until we are done talking."

    Your son knows you well. :laugh:

    Just recently my son told a friend of mine, " My dad is the handiest guy I know, he does laundry and bar tends"
    That's my boy!
    Side note, I am not a bar tender by trade, just around the house.

    Three Years Old:
    I'm in my room naked picking out my work clothes... he points at the boobs, "Put those things away and come help me find Spiderman."

    Six Years Old, This Morning:
    "For the love of gravy, mom! Go brush your teeth!"

    I shared this one with my FL...

    Last weekend, my 11-year old daughter asked me to take her clothes shopping for some "mom & me" time. We're at Kohls & she's picking through some shirts when she goes, "EWWWW!!!!!" So, I asked her what's wrong and she said: "I just touched a Justin Bieber shirt...I need to wash my hands now."

    When my oldest was two, she kept asking me for a "tennis shoe". She had done this 2 or 3 times on the way to day care. I would look at her and I would say "but you're wearing tennis shoes?" And of course, she would get frustrated and would cry. This went on for a couple of weeks. Then, one day, she sneezed really hard and long rivers of snot hung down from each nostril. Then, she cries "Mommy, I need a tennis shoe!"

    I was like... oh.

    So, when my son was 4 and it was Christmas day at my parents house. My whole family was there. My younger brother, who had been collecting Fisher Price Pirate Ship and figures for him, instead of keeping in original packing, found the biggest box he could, which happened to be the box from a huge child car seat to put it all in, that of course, was as big as my son. Wrapped it. Put it "under" the tree. My son went to open it, knowing it was his AND the biggest box in the room, and was incredibly excited. He ripped into it with a huge grin, paper flying in all different directions, until he finally got it all off and still excited, proudly exclaims from behind the box, jumping up and down, "I got a car seat!" Didn't matter really what was in that box, as long as it was his box! Had us all laughing so hard... for a long time. :laugh:

    Everytime they tell me they love me it is the most awesome moment of every day, but other than that....

    Me - What are you most thankful for?

    Kaylee (4 at the time) - Ummmmmm, I'm going to have to say eyebrows mom.

    Me - Uh, okay babe, why eyebrows.

    Kaylee - Because eyebrows are RAD!

    Just shook my head and laughed!

    One morning I'm at the table enjoying my coffee and my boys are watching Saturday morning cartoons. Justice League is on. My older son (7 at the time) sits down beside me at the table puts his hand on mine and says, "Dad I know Superman isn't real, but to me you are Superman."

    My three year old, husband, and I were on vacation and we were joking around calling each other monsters and other silly things. "Daddy" said, "Is mommy a monster" and my son looks at him incredulously..."mommy's not a monster, she's my best friend!" Hahaha, melted my heart.

    My newly minted 3 year old daughter on our walk the other day, with her and her little sister in the double stroller:

    Me: Here comes the big bump!

    Her: Hold on to your diapers, kids!

    Coming into my room, putting her hand delicately on my cheek, leaning in close and saying: Good Morning, my Sunshine.

    The other day I got up before her and she usually gets to come into my room and snuggle with me before we get up for the day. She sees me dressed for work and starts bawling:

    I hate your clothes.. they are ugly.... get back into your nightgown.

    About 10 years ago my husband came home from a yard sale with a portrait of John F. Kennedy. He showed it to our son (who was in pre-school at the time) and jokingly asked him if he knew who it was. Son lit up like a bulb and announced, "THAT'S GEORGE BUSHINGTON!!!"

    To this day, whenever we see any photo or video of JFK we laugh and repeat the phrase, much to the chagrin of our now-teenager :bigsmile:

    My 4 year old is on vacation with her grandparents out West. She called me and said "hi mama. I'm waiting for Old Faithful to erupt but I wanted to tell you that my butt itches."

    So cute.
