know it all

While in the car Brodie pointed to a new building in our area and told me to look. I told him what the building is. He promptly responded, "I know that." I smiled to myself at his self assured answer, thinking he knows it all already. I replied, "You know a lot." Brodie then shocked me by saying, "I know a little. You know it all."

christmas

Listening to Air1 this morning in the car. A segment from Luis Palau aired. Luis was talking about Christmas not being about lights and greeting cards, but about Jesus Christ. Brodie happily shouted, "That's our Jesus!"

don't worry

I was reminding Brodie of some proper behaviors before we left the house. He interrupted me to say, "I got is ALL under control. Okay?"

lil rascal

Brodie looked me in the eye as he put on his baseball cap, kept eye contact as he twisted the bill over to the side. He then told me in a serious tone, "Do not call me Spanky".

baa

On our way out of a store I pushed Brodie in the shopping cart over those annoying yellow bumps. He let out a, "Ahhhh" while he went over. Then he said, "Why does it make you baaaaa like a sheep?"

car seats

This morning in the car the kids and I were talking about laws concerning car seats. I explained that it is breaking the law to not have a child in the proper car seat or booster and if I got pulled over for some other reason I would not only get a ticket for that violation, I'd get a ticket about the car seat too. Brodie asked, "Would you be in a heap of trouble?" I told him that yes I would.

scream like a girl

Brodie and I were hanging out at home. He comes into the room I was sorting laundry in and starts screaming a funny high pitched scream. Then he tells me, "I scream like a girl, huh, Mommy?" I kinda laugh not sure where he is going with this and tell him, "Uh, if you want to." He screams the same odd way and adds, "I want my mommy!" I asked if I heard him correctly. He starts lauging and tells me, "I was just being silly."
