One Night at Costco

Take a little walk through  my world.
Parker and I went to Costco. Real quick. To pick up one thing.
We were there about 20 minutes.

* "Mom, you can get me a lynx for Christmas."
"A lynx? A live lynx?  Yeah, you can can't on that happening."
"All I know is that it's the coolest cat in the world."


Do the sell lynxes (what's the plural of lynx?) at Costco?

* Oh yeah, for youth group, we're getting gingerbread house kits and making them and blowing them up."
"Whose idea was that?"
"Think about it."

I don't have to think about it

* "Arrgghhh.......they only have off brand french fried onions and now all they have is low sodium soy sauce.  What kind of place is this? They are letting me down!"
"Face it Mom.  We're just skinny people in a fat man's world."


That explains a lot!

* "Why do you keep stopping the cart and writing?
Are you seriously writing down everything I say?
Without me, you would have NO blog.
I should get paid!"

No. *I* should get paid!

Good to see I'm not the only one who does this. I'm thinking a personal recorder may be on the top of our Christmas list. :)

He sounds like a real character :) Very funny (and sweet). I love the way little boys think.

We are so bad at making gingerbread houses that they look like they've been blown up before we actually blow them up!

Ah, kids. I do remember him blowing up something last year. Maybe it was the gingerbread houses....

That's so funny, I was just thinking, how do you remember all of this stuff?!
Maybe Parker should get a percentage of your profits if you got paid. He's given you some pretty funny material to work with!
