ooooh ...

Tessa said "----oooooh, Jackie said happiness without the HA"

Jack, now upset, frowns. Tessa counters by saying -- "stop it, Jack -- you're such a bad actor!" At this point, Jack yells, "I don't want to be an actor!"

Hump

Inadvertantly had the computer speakers cranked up on max, startling my 5 year old off the couch with his Leapster. Immediately Jack yells ''"Dad, you made me hump!" I know, I know, he's still developing his vocabulary.

Once was hair

After drying the kids up at swimming practice, I tried to comb Jack's hair at the YMCA locker. I paused and made a motion as if combing my own head. Tessa catching this, asked me why I did ... I explained to her, " it's been awhile since daddy's had hair, honey, that's all."

Jack on being pregnant

Jack asked if men can give birth to babies. I said nope. He asked if there was EVER a case of ANY man ever having one ... Asking him why, he countered that if he couldn't give birth to one... and if a girl didn't like him (gasp), he wouldn't be able to have a family ...and be ALL alone. Kid just turned 5 last month. Hey don't look at me, I told him it's all good, not to worry and to finish his churros first.
