Ive probably posted enough serious stuff in one day to justify taking one break into drollness and sarcasm. Heres the story: Ethan seemed to have born understanding irony and jokes, so almost ever since he was old enough to try to order me around, I would pull my best Steve Martin Insolent Waiter impression from the first/best Muppet Movie and answer the kids demands by saying, Oh! MAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY I????? If you know the movie, you know what Im talking about. If you dont know, watch the hilarious clip below. But the point of todays story is that now this bright 7 year old (Grandma! Im almost EIGHT! Yes, in only 4 months!) is mimicking his grandma mimicking Martin. Yes, hes turned the tables laughingly on me and answering me the same way. Lesson: Be careful how you talk to your (grand)kids! ;) (And oh yeah! His school starts tomorrow - prayers for his new Second Grade teacher!) https://youtube/watch?v=V-kuOu_PSME
