I did not prompt him to do this!
So I had coupons for Chic - fil - A kids meals and as I pullup to the drivethru Josh pipes up from the back seat" Now there's a HANDSOME man!" about the teenage kid at the window. The guy goes "Hey, Sara listen to this - say that louder kid" and Josh says it louder then the guy goes "Did everybody in here hear that??" to his co-workers. As we drove away I told Josh that everyone likes to be complimented and that was a nice thing to say and he goes, "Sara was pretty too, but I want to compliment boys first".
Guess that guy just found his favorite customer cause as we left he told us to come back any time!!

If you're tired you should get some rest.
Me - Josh, we haven't seen your regular bus driver for a while maybe she'll be back this morning.
Josh- One of the kids on the bus said they think that she's rerested.
Me - She's what?
Josh - Rerested, like she's not coming back
Me - Maybe you mean reTIRED?
Josh - Yeah, that's it!

classically inappropriate ?
We had a cook out at my in-laws' place this past weekend and while we were eating nine year old Dima noticed a small statue of Michelangelo's David on a shelf and told us it was "inappropriate"... I guess one person's classic work of art is just another person's statue of an un-clad guy, the adults at the table got a chuckle out of that one.

Ocean City, MD trip
Dima taking my hand to walk down the boardwalk and Josh thanking me again and again are what I think of as the highlights of our Spring Break trip to Ocean City, Maryland this week.
Once I realized the kids had nothing on their schedules after dental and eye appointments on Monday and then playing a hockey game on Tuesday I started looking into stuff to do. My first thought was OC, NJ but when I compared the hotels in each place the extra hour of driving to get to Maryland seemed like the better deal. I got a place with a kitchenette so we wouldn't have to eat out much, the place was right on the boardwalk and the hotel had a pool and hot tub. When we did anything other than the pool Josh was like "can we go to the pool? can we go to the pool? can we go to the pool?" and since it was chilly and windy we did end up spending a lot of time there we also did the arcade and walked the boardwalk and of course got some caches one of the caches was a webcam cache - I'm on the phone with Chris at home so he could tell us where to stand and the kids helped me figure out where the camera was in the first place. This was my first of this type of geocache.

The drive home yesterday felt long but the trip was a nice get away. Josh just thanked me again tonight as I was tucking him into bed.

That girl must be crazy!
This morning Josh and heard the end of a weather forecast for tomorrow as we were on our way to a doctor appointment (he has a cough and will be fine after using his Advair inhaler for a week) when the girl said that they're expecting an inch or two of snow. At first I was like... is she talking about this area??? and when she mentioned temps in local places I knew she was and Josh was saying ... " Spring just started, what? That girl must be crazy!".
This just after I decided to wash up hats and mittens and put them into storage cause there's got to be noooo more chance of snow now that the weather's turning out to be nicer and nicer each day.... yeah, right!

St. Pat's day lizard?
Leprechaun / Lizard
During dinner yesterday the boys were talking about stories they heard in school involving a leprechaun that comes during the night - only if you're asleep - and leaves candy and coins in your socks if you leave them beside the bed on St. Patrick's Day eve. Well, I had never heard of that so I think it's another ploy to get loot... but anyway, Josh went upstairs (a night early) and put his PJs on and came down with a large pair of socks he intended to leave beside his bed for the "lizard"!! I think he combined leprechaun and wizard to come up with that.
