Gabe is a total riot!

Everyone's stories in this thread make me laugh so hard, but Molly, Gabe killz. me. ded. everytime.

So, I was IM'ing Juan your recent post re: Gabe, Molly (for the uninitiated, Juan is my kid, er, husband).

11:47:56 AM juan: If I was a kid, I'd be Gabe.

And then I reminded him that he is a kid and his name is Juan.

Well, if Gabe grows up to be as nice as Juan, then all this is worth it.

Yesterday, after preschool, some moms were cleaning and their kids were sitting eating a pizza snack. One kid was eating all the "good" stuff, then handing the other kid the crusts.

A teacher walked over and said "do you want your own slice of pizza?" and the kid says "No, I just like the bones."

AWWWWWW. That totally made him blush.

oooh Molly! All the stories on this thread are beautiful, but yours are always marvellous....:you're such a good narrator!
I already love your kids!

I'm happy to share the weirdness that is my youngest child! The fact that he cracks you guys up has saved his rear more than once.

Last night Gabe stated that the world was spinning. I agreed, and said that we just couldn't feel it spinning. He said, "Oh yeah, people can feel the earth spinning with their toes, but just not us because we live upstairs."

We had cherries with dinner tonight and Evelyn kept asking if she could have grapes without the nut. Took us forever to figure out what she was asking for. She wanted her cherries pitted before we gave them to her. I couldn't stop giggling.

File this one under "You're raising a California kid when..."

I told Gabe to clean up his toys and he said, "I can't, Mom. I have to meditate."

*SNORT*

That's what you get for being steeped in granola Molly. You need to move to OC quickly before your children turn into Müesli!

Soli made the suggestion that we send Gabe, T, Porter and Ife's Indy to search for the Taliban. Osama would be doomed by that crack team. Gabe could talk his way into confidence with him, Porter and Indy would chew on his hat and beard and T would sit on him and chew his pockets until the authorities got there.

*snort* Canute, THAT is a fab plan!

Jessica was just helping me fold laundry:

Mommy, how do you fold a booby holder?

*puts it up to herself*

It's gonna be a long time before I need one of these, isn't it?

Mwhehe. That just might work. I can see the headlines now: Child talks Osama out of hole; Vizsla , Lab and Dane lick him to death. More at eleven.

At the very least, they'd have to come up with a really interesting graphic for it.

And from now on, I'm calling it a "booby holder". Srsly.

Booby holder. Honestly!

T will refrain from licking, but will drool. If they all drooled enough, he'd either drown or not be able to get up until the authorities got there. Either way, the children and dogs win.

LOL. And if Osama gets caught like that, it'd turn future generations off terrorism too. Win-win for everyone.

Gabe was wearing one of those tinsel halos for an angel costume and says, "Look, I'm an angel"
and Aidan says, "Yep. Urine angel".
"I know, that's what I said. I'm an angel."
"Yeah Gabe, Urine Angel"

So now that is Aidan's private joke to himself. And you.
