Here's the beef...

So here are my favorite kids' quotes recently:

I noticed that Isaac had started to take his own initiative to shower lately. He was getting up early in the morning and showering, being careful to leave his wet towel lumped somewhere. After a few times of Isaac doing this, I noticed that the "kid shampoo" had been in my bathroom for the last week or two but Isaac had been showering in the other bathroom. Hum. So one time I asked him what he had been using to wash with when he showered? He answered casually, "Oh, a cryptus smoothie." Hum, how mysterious. I had to go peek at his secret cleaner and there is was: Suave Citrus Smoothie. Good enough. Now let's just hope he's been using the cryptus shampoo (that was hidden) and not the cryptus conditioner (that was out in plain sight).

Will helped me make some deliveries this month. I didn't do Visiting Teaching visits, but rather "drop-offs" and while we were out, we took some stuff to some people that had just had babies. Three-fourths of the way finished, Will got back into his seat and declared, "Mom, this is awesome!" I asked him, "What's so awesome, Will?" And he responded, "All this doing!"

But my favorite was when Will was helping me again, this time browning the hamburger and onions for the spaghetti sauce. After some of the grease had leaked out of the meat and it started to jump and spit, some of it splashed on to Will. Of course I did the whole, "Oh, Will, are you okay? I'm sorry you got burned!" And Will leaned into me and started rubbing my shoulder and back and reassured me, "Oh, it's okay Mom. I still love you anyway!"
