Boy Quotes #3

Awhile ago I pointed out the full moon to Cory.  I asked him if he could see the face and told him there was a "man" in the moon.
"What's his name?"
"The Man in the Moon.  Do you want to give him a name?"
"Jesus"
I guess that works...

***

Last week I made a pineapple upside down cake for Brian's birthday... the following conversation ensued between Daddy and Cory.

"Daddy, the cake doesn't want us to eat the cake"

*surprised* "Why do you say that?"

"Because the cake is people."

For a moment, my son imagined the horror of a nice, home made pineapple-upside-down cake as it realized it was going to be eaten alive.
***
And finally... driving into town and I commented on this particular sign board that we pass that *always* misuses quotes.  ie.  Does your lawn mower or weed eater have "problems"?  Let us help!
Brian said, "Foul, 5 yards, repeat the down" or in other words, FAIL!
When from the back seat we hear, "Owl, 5 yards from a jinglebell!"
After we quit laughing and asked him what he said he replied, "It was from a quote".

And there you have it!

PS.  I just found out that it's my friend Carrie's birthday this week!  And she has fun birthday news, she's expecting their third child next spring!  Carrie and I have lots in common (hello, she writes a book blog! and has a photography business!), she even lives in the same town as my in-laws, but so far we've not managed to coordinate our schedules to meet up.  But please go check out the birthday gathering (she's giving things away!) and wish her Happy Birthday!

  1. =D Thanks for the birthday mention!

    And LOL on eating the cake. When my little brother was turning 2 my mom made him a Mickey Mouse head cake. As they cut into it, my 8 year old self, attempting to make a joke, exclaimed, "You're killing Mickey Mouse!" My mom was a little less than pleased when my brother burst into tears and refused to eat the cake. ;D ha!
