The funny things they (we) say

I was making a comment on my friends blog about how great it is to have a fun place to write down all those cute and funny things our kids say when they are little......For me if I remembered I would find somewhere to write it and some day I'll find them, I hope. But as I was thinking about it, I realized that I had one of those funny moments myself.......
So a month or so ago, Josh was in his drama class. Ryan, Mark Jr and I were waiting in the car (usually playing cribbage while we wait) we were talking about a recent punishment they were given and Ryan was arguing that it wasn't a 'just' situation. He was upset because he didn't feel as though he had done the same thing Josh did but yet he was being punished also............Well clever, smart, brilliant, Me pipes up.......I quickly rush to the mother mode and I am going to give a great example to explain this so he can understand.........So without much thought, these brilliant things just seem to come to me, I speak......"Ryan, let me give you an example.........let's say you kill someone but you don't do it intentionally and Josh also kills someone and does it on purpose....you both are going" ----------------Now midsentence, I look in the rearview mirror to see Ryan's jaw dropped open and his expression on his face is WHAT???? Well at that moment my brain starts to function again and I just crack up. The words just caught up to my brain and as I see the expression on his face I realize what I was just saying.............We laughed for quite a while, me longer than them, I still chuckle every time I think about it. Where in the world did I get that from??????????????
It wasn't even a good example, I explained to him, because in those situations the punishments would be different and I was trying to explain how sometimes our actions are different but punishment is the same. Why in the world would I go so far out to left field and use killing as any kind of example ever???????

These are a few minutes from one of Mark Jr's games this week. DON'T FORGET TO PAUSE RIGHT AWAY AND LET THE VIDEO LOAD.........
When he is up to bat if you look at what he does at the plate you will see him draw a cross, he does it every time he swings. He saw a friend do it years ago and has done it ever since.......

Happy Birthday MOM

Hmmmmm......Hmmmmm......There are so many things Josh wants to say, he just doesn't know where to begin......A couple minutes into it you see him panic that Ryan just let him know he has 3 more minutes. I love the pained looks on his face.

WHEN YOU START THE VIDEO QUICKLY CLICK PAUSE AND LET IT LOAD, THEN IT SHOULD WORK FINE.......
