The competition between boys, mine specifically, is just amazing....and non-stop!! lol  Today we were in the car and I heard them talking kinda like the teacher in Charlie Brown, "Wa-wa-wa", but then it finally penetrated my brain and this is what I hear:

"A motorcyle beats you."
"A police car beats you."
"Well, a fire truck beats you."
"A monster truck beats you."
"God beats you."
No response.

LOL!  It was so funny.  When we were in Joann Fabrics today, the cashier told me that according to statistics, one boy is like 4 girls, meaning I had the equivalent to 8 girls with me!  That sounds about right!  They are certainly busy and noisy and rough and messy, but boy are they a joy!  So grateful for my rambunctious boys!! :-)

This conversation is disturbing on many levels...though it is funny.

Indy: I can't believe Levi licked my dirty toe.

Me: What?? That's gross! Why did he do that?

Indy: I don't know. He wanted to.

Me: And you let him??

Indy: Yes. He wanted to.

Me: So if he wanted to jump off a bridge you'd let him? And, not tell him "No"?

Indy: Well, how high is the bridge?

**Apparently, the previous night, Indy had his feet hanging over the end of the top bunk, over Levi's head on the lower bunk. So, Levi told Indy he was going to lick Indy's feet. Indy did say no, but then Levi licked Indy's toe. Ewwww.... Actually, thank goodness, they'd had baths so it wasn't as bad as it could have been. But, I must say, as much as Levi puts things in his mouth...yes, still (!!)...at least he's got a good, built-up immune system!! lol

Tuesday, while driving, I heard a local radio personality say this: "Well, we started Fall just about half an hour ago, at 5:19 pm and there is a chill in the air. It's only about 90 degrees today." I thought this was so funny! And, sadly, so true. lol

This morning, while we were driving to school, a guy came driving next to us and passed us, not to quickly. Levi said, "Whoa! Slow down, cowboy." It was so natural and so condescending, it was so funny. We all cracked up! He says the funniest things!!

This morning while finishing up our Bible time, we went around the table with everyone saying a short sentence of what they're thankful for. I started, then Ashton, who was thankful for family and food, Indy, who was thankful for "all the people", then Levi, who was thankful for golf clubs. I kid you not. He said, "Dear Jesus, Thank you for my golf clubs...and all the golf clubs you gave me." Too funny. Then, Indy says, "All he cares about is golf!" I agreed and we moved on. It was funny.
