.amen.

scenario: last night- lil dude saying his bedtime prayers which went rather quickly and much shorter than usual.
here is his closing statement:
..and God, please don't take this short prayer personal- amen.

.and there ya have it.


lil dude emerges from the bathroom carrying his laptop.
he proudly announces that he found the airsoft gun he's been saving for ON SALE!
this was promptly followed by his next discovery: i do my best work on the can.

the end.

.welcome to my world.

lil dude informs big dude that when hubby and i return from a night out that he will be getting big dude in trouble 'just because'.
big dude rolled his eyes and said whatever- she'll never believe you.
lil dude replied: yes she will. who's she gonna believe? her baby angel boy or her demon teenager?

yeah- i know.
welcome to my world.

they really should get a room. or a tree.

lil dude just asked if it's squirrel mating season.
apparently we had 7 squirrels in our backyard just now.
he whispered that two of them were having *cough* 'FUN'.
he then announced he is officially scared for life.
end of story.

guess he told me.

lil dude just made reference to the playboy mansion.
i asked how he knew about said mansion.
with a cheshire grin he replied "uh mom, this is the 21st century not the 20th century... i've been around the block."
um yeah.
on your bike maybe.
you're ONLY 12.
oye.

. son- are you SURE you aren't a diva?

excuse the typos- but you'll get the point of this.
and for the record- this is big dude texting me during school hours to inform me he is NOT going home with his girlfriend after school.... you'll see why.

.the 'V' word.

lil dude: so ya know lauren from school? she claims she's a vegan.
me: really?
lil dude: and i replied to her DUH! of course you are- we're only 12 and you aren't married. you're supposed to be a vegan until you get married.
me: ?
lil dude: yeah. then someone said to me- not virgin! vegan! you're thinking virgin. that's different than a vegan.
lil dude: so mom? what's the difference?
me: um....

(many have emailed me asking my reply to him- here is what i said: sounds like lauren is having steak on her wedding night! unfortunately, i think this further confused lil dude...)
