Kids make me laugh

These stories are for me to remember them, so you might not find them funny at all but they where for me so I am putting them down.

The other night on the way home from Grandma's Josie complains from the back seat that her tummy itches. So I try and help by thinking of what might be causing it, and since we always rely on our own experiences most I proceed to tell her that she might be itching because she is growing and her skin is stretching (my tummy always itched when I was pregnant). She looked confused so I start to explain further about growing pains and growth spurts when she cuts me off quite abruptly and says "No, I think it is just my pj's".

I felt rather silly, while laughing, because that simple thought had never crossed my mind.

Story number 2- We found Aspen standing on a chair to avoid my Mom new puppy, who also happens to love eating toes. Jon picked her up and carried her away while she layed on his shoulder and cried. Jon asked why she was crying and she sobbed back "the puppy hates me".

Story numbwer 3-I have a tendency to act like a complete goof while alone with me family. Especially if it is just my kids and I am cooking something. I sing and dance and pantomime and usually my kids laugh their little heads off. The other day I started pirouettes and singing when I see Josie lean over to Tressa and whisper "Crazy Mom is back" and so I laughed and asked "What, you think I am crazy Mom just because I act like a dork while I cook?" Well now Aspen thinks it is terribly funny to call me Dork Mom-well chant it actually. Maybe I should try being all serious and see how long it takes them to beg me to be my normal "dork"self again.
