Hodge Podge

The boys and I have had some short and cute conversations lately.  Here we go:


At a birthday party this afternoon, I was playing with Zach and he said:

"Loyal sidekick, come with me.  I'm the leader."

*********************************************************************************

Zach and I were listening to the radio the other day (we usually listen to the kids' music).  All of a sudden Zach says:

"You have a beautiful voice, Mama."

And this is how the conversation went:

Me:  Oh, buddy, that's not me singing.  That's Rihanna.

Zach:  Who's Nianna?

Me:  Rihanna is a singer.

Zach:  Nianna has a beautiful voice.

*********************************************************************************

I was driving in the car with Zach the other day and he asked why an army truck was dirty (aka camouflaged).  As I launched into an explanation of camouflage, he said:

"Let's just listen to the music."

*********************************************************************************

Gabe and Henry are really forging a bond these days.  The other morning, Gabe was kissing Henry and then vigorously wiping his face.  When I asked him what he was doing, he said:

"I'm wiping the dust off.  There's lots of dust on Henry."   (huh?)

I drove a loaner car recently, as my car needed some repairs.  We didn't have our children's music in the loaner car, so I had the radio on.  Gabe said:

"Does this car have little boys' music in it?"

And when I told him no, he was fine with it.  You mean, all of this time I could have been listening to the radio???
