Maxisms

“Mommy, did you know that only the brown bunnies can poop chocolate Easter eggs?!”

(It's only logical, right?!)

“Today I colored a picture at school.”

“That’s nice Max, what did you color?”

“A man that died in the fire and then the men were putting his body on the donkey because God said so.”

(Right… I guess I missed that bible story!)

“Mommy, did Jesus die yet? I wanna paint Easter eggs!”

(I’m glad he understands the real meaning of Easter!)

“My soccer shoes are soooo fast!”

(The magic is totally in those shoes, babe)

“Mommy, what’s on my nap mat?” (pointing to his new outer space mat)

“Umm… that’s called a… (it took me a second to think of the name)”

“METEOR! It’s the same as when the Wonder Pets used teamwork to pull the Chimp's rocket out of the meteor's path!”

(At least my kids watch educational TV!)

“Mommy, can I watch TV because my legs are broken?”

(He wanted to watch TV instead of playing outside! Ha!... He ended up playing outside with his 'broken' legs anyway!)

“Max, what do you want to be when you grow up?”

“I don’t know yet Mommy, I will have to think about it.”

(10 minutes later)

“I want to be a train!”

“But sweetie, you can’t be a train. You can be the conductor if you would like!”

“No thanks, I just wanna be a train.”       

“Okay Max. Whatever makes you happy…” (something about picking your battles…)

(2 hours later)

“Mommy, you are so silly! I want to drive the train! I can’t be a train!”

Sigh….
