Foster Funnies

10/8/06 (Mommy's favorite) Max, on homeschooling: "It's too bad dad didn't take my idea of PE as 'Playstation Education'."

9/28/06 Max, on Spanish lessons: "When are they going to teach us to ask for soda? I don't like beer."

9/28/06 The narrator says something in English and the students are supposed to say it in Spanish. Trey has much more fun shouting "I want a beer!" in English. I keep telling Dave this is probably going to happen at some inopportune moment - like, Sunday School.

Max and Gunnar where sword fighting when they disappeared into my bathroom. "We found the really big bandages, mom," they said as they emerged with Maxi-pads plastered to their chests.

Trey came to Dave with his shirt on his arms with the arms inside out and the body of the shirt right side out - a hopeless combination, and said, "Can you help me get this outside-in?"

Max and I were out on a date and I asked him if he wanted anything when I stopped at MacDonalds for a Diet Coke. He selected a Sprite but said, "I usually don't get anything because Gunnar doesn't like it." Later, at home, I was short one straw for lunch drinks and without thinking grabbed the straw from Max's MacDonalds' Sprite to put in Gunnar's lunch drink. When I passed it to Gunnar (who hadn't seen what I did) he shouted, "Augh, a straw from MacDonalds! Why did I get a MacDonalds straw?" He REALLY doesn't like MacDonalds - and even knows their straws are white with yellow and red stripes!

Trey was playing in my things and I said, "Don't play with the things there - that is a 'mommy cupboard'." "Well then, where is a 'Trey cupboard'?"
