Quotes

*Lucas:  Dad, just sometimes kids like their moms better than their dads.  Kaitlin just likes mom better than you.
Clint:  How about you?  Do you like mommy better, too?
Lucas:  No, actually I like you better.

(He's still a little disgruntled.  He was in trouble with me the other night for not going to bed and dragging out bedtime--"Mom, I need _____.  (Repeated 10 times).  Mom, I need Dad again.  I have to tell him a secret."  Me: "No.  Tell me and I'll tell Daddy."  Lucas:  "No!  I need Daddy!"  Finally I got Clint.  The secret was, "Daddy, why does Mommy hate me?"  Poor kid!  So, he likes Clint better for now!) :)

*Lucas read a new book from school titled "Come."  The whole story is a girl saying, "Come and see my horse.  Come look at my fish.  Come and see my fish."  Near the end of reading the story for his first time, Lucas said, under his breath, "She is bossy!"

*Clint:  You're being kind of bossy.
Lucas:  Yeah!  'Cause I'm the bosser!

*We've been having some thunderstorms lately.  Lucas woke up afraid at 6 this morning.  He told us he said a prayer that the thunder would stop.

*Lucas, to my mom:  Don't worry; I'm a nice dentist.  I won't cut off your hand.

*Kaitlin's prayer is always the same:  Nana, Nathan, Nana, Nathan, Yosua (Joshua), Nana, Nathan  (Those are some of her cousins).

*Kaitlin really enjoys coloring. 
Kaitlin:  See?  I did it!  Color! 
Me:  Pretty!  Good job! 
Kaitlin:  Gucas!  See? 
Lucas:  Cool!
Kaitlin, very stern, as if I might steal her picture:  Fold it.  Nana.  NANA.  Fold it.

Nana, all of her pictures are for you!  (Boo the Clown does get one every once in awhile).  :)
