Another JW Moment

Last week, JW was trying to explain something to me and I was having a little trouble following his logic. I probed into his thoughts a little more until I felt I understood what he meant and replied, "OOOhhh, I smell what you're cookin'!"

To which he replied, "What? What do you mean? Like in my pants?"

Oh, that boy is an endless supply of funny!

Setting: Ancient History Class

Question: Who wrote the book of Ecclesiates?

You can take your guesses as to which kiddo said which answer! Clearly I'm teacher of the year.

JW Strikes Again

Monday evening, we met James, Leigh, and the girls for dinner so we could hang with Uncle James before he left for Haiti. As we were wrapping up the evening with one last chat in the parking lot, JW yelled, "Goodbye, Uncle James! See you when you get back from Hades!"

Mom, did you know...

...that you actually have two stomachs? One for water and one for food!

A few minutes later at dinner

"Mom, my stomach hurts."

"Which one? Your food stomach or your water stomach?"

"I really won't know 'til I go to the bathroom."

Laying Down the Law

Today, in History, we were discussing how archeologists have discovered that even the earliest civilizations had laws that were supposed to help keep the people safe. So, I asked the kids what rules we have in our home that help us to think about the needs of others and keep us safe.

JW's answer?

"Do NOT chew gum by Mom!"

I'm pretty sure my kids are going to need therapy!

Good News

"Mom, your armpits aren't nearly as hairy as dad's!"
