"I don't have sunscreen on. I'm a boy."

Not sure I understand the logic there. :)

Words of wisdom

Owen has been cracking me up lately with the funny things he says. Kids just see the world so innocently and concretly.

He was flapping his arms like a bird (Ben had been talking about birds), so I asked him if he could fly. He said, "No. I'm a boy. I have two arms." If only everybody took me as seriously as Owen!

He has also decided that the remote control for our digital frame is a cell phone. The frame works fine without it, fortunately, because he seems to find it no matter where I hide it (and store it in the "trunk" of his tricycle.) He had this "conversation" on his "phone" in one breath with zero pauses. "HelloMr.TophamHattWhatchaDoing?UmIDon'tKnowByeBye"

Mr. TophamHatt= Sir Topham Hatt of Thomas the Train fame.

This morning Owen wanted to jump on the bed in the guest room. We've let him do this on occassion (more like Ben throws him on the bed), but Ben was bringing him downstairs for breakfast. When Owen said he wanted to jump on the bed and Ben said no, Owen said, "Grandma said yes." So it begins...

And that is just a taste of Owen's brain of late.
