My oldest son is ALOT like me. I see it in the things he says all the time. Rob and I have a very crass, edgy sense of humor. This is great when its just he and I talking to one another, but as the children get older they get nosier. I catch Devon standing around listening to Rob and I or anyone else for that matter all the time. He will say things and its like looking in a mirror.
Today we were in the car driving and he says We should make a wheel of punishment. He proceeded to explain to me the different consequences that would be on it. One of those being a little sliver saying "get out of your punishment free". He was of course saying all this in jest and we were getting a good laugh out of the different (silly) punishments we could add to it.
This evening I sent the boys up to clean their rooms. Everyone ran up ahead of Devon and were jumping and yelling and making a loud ruckus (cabin fever) He started to walk up the stairs and looked over at me and says "this is going to be a long childhood"
bwaaa...haaaa....haaaa

It is kinda scary when you see yourself in your children isn't it?? ;-) My 2 1/2 is ALOT like me and sometimes it is not always the good things, LOL. I guess it is a good reminder that we need to REALLY watch what we say and do, huh?
I hope you had a wonderful New Year!!!
Happy New Year! I wanted to let you know that your gift came in the mail. What a pleasant surprise! You are too sweet and thoughtful. Thank you so much for everything!!!!
Oh, this is priceless. How could you not laugh at- and with- someone like that? I love it, and it's an even better picture of who you are, too, friend! :)
