Kids and the Darnedest Things They Say and Do

I have been sharing some of my "encounters" with my sons on facebook, and I find them really amusing and insightful (and did I say amusing? hehehe)  Today was just kinda weird because our "encounter" aligned with my new class load (for the summer.. yes, I, along with around at least 100 students won't be frolicking anywhere but in the campus for this summer =p), which is Principles of Marketing..  We were in the grocery and he displayed his knack for absorbing information around him, pointing out some products and their advertised benefits (like him saying "Mama, you need Champion" as we were passing the detergents aisle and "You get that Mama so that you'll have string hair" as we passed by a picture of  KC, advertising her shampoo)  So I was laughing while doing the groceries, amazed at his sponge of a mind.

And this evening, before falling asleep, Lucius was watching Tangled (again, for the nth time.. its his current favorite).. he says he's the Flyn Rider character and I'm Rapunzel, and so when the scene showed Rapunzel hitting Rider from behind with a frying pan, he turns to me and says "Ouch! Why did you hit my head?!"  and he got me laughing again.. Oh, and he sings along, too.. he even makes me sing along.. well it does come a bit easy for me since the songs get stuck in my head due to the constant playing of the movie

Last Sunday was even funnier.. I brought him along with me while I played badminton with my sister and some friends.. he said he wanted to play, and so he began stretching (to my sister's amusement) because he saw me doing the same before picking up my racket..

Aaaaahhhh.. kids.. they can be difficult sometimes but the darnedest things they say and do are definitely priceless =)
