In honor of Father’s Day, how about some funny stuff my kids have done lately?

• I made chicken stock last week and put it in a juice pitcher until I could get freezer containers of the proportions that I wanted.  I should’ve guessed that S would think it was really juice.  She demanded some.  After awhile, I complied, with an evil grin on my face.  G wanted some, too.  I gave G his cup and he promptly made a face and didn’t finish it.  S gulped hers down and asked for more. I am not kidding.
• S disobeyed me several times in a row and per my promise I had to discipline her.  I sat her on the couch and asked if she wanted a spanking or time out.  She thinks for a minute, looks at me with a cute grin, and says, “Lollipop?”  I couldn’t stop laughing long enough to discipline her at all!
• This morning, Chris was sleeping on the couch because S crawled into bed with me.  He awoke to G getting out his VSmile game (video game console for preschoolers) which we had told him several times was broken and not to get out.  Chris snuck up on G and when G turned around his jaw dropped open.  He quickly recovered and said, “Daddy, go back to sleep now.  It’s ok, go back to sleep.”
• And just some cuteness…S loves having her hair brushed.  She’ll even fall asleep in my lap while I brush her hair.  But if I stop, she wakes up and makes me keep going, then she goes back to sleep again.  It’s a few minutes before she’s sound asleep and I can stop.  I love those moments.
