well He's eight but my son had me in stitches .
His lastest reading assignments has been to read
non-fiction so we were reading one of his kids
National Geographic's about Harp seals .

when I read outloud
"at 2 weeks the mother harp seal abandons her young"

my son said "no fair I demand a recount"

ROFLMAO ...you betcha I'm proud

1. My 7 yo is pretty politically savvy, too.
I'm optimistic about the future, thank God for our wonderful children!

4. Good parenting!
I had the parrot thing blow up in my face with my daughter. We were at my MIL's and she proudly annouced, "Mama said I don't have to eat all my broccoli here,'cause yours is mushy in my mouth".
