Some cute things

Some cute things being said at the Lamica House lately...

Me: Silas, are you ready to have your hair cut?
Silas: No
Me: Why?
Silas: Cause...

JC: Guess who died?
Me: Who?
JC: DeeDee (her imaginary friend). She's in Heaven.
Me: Oh really? How sad. What happened?
JC: She ate a turtle and it had germs on it. I told her it would make her sick. She didn't believe me.

JC: Silas, what does a chicken nugget say?
Silas: Bock Bock!
JC: That's right little boy! You are so smart!!

JC: I want to be a firefighter, a dentist girl, a doctor and an ice cream girl!!
Me: Awesome! You are going to be a lot of things.
JC: Yeah, and I'll give you and everyone free ice cream. Then at night I'll be Sleeping Beauty!

Silas comes running to me with a clear cup. "Wommmm!" "Pillar!!!" giggle....giggle.
He found a little worm and dropped it into the cup. He grabbed it out and it started wiggling around. He screamed, dropped the worm, jumped back and said "I not ike it!!" "Bye Bye wom, See you!"

Hello, Santa Claus?

Today as I was sitting checking my email and facebook, JaneClaire and Silas decided to crawl under the computer desk to play. I saw JC's hand reach up...

JC - "Mom, can you hand me my cell phone please?"
Me - "Here you go" - passing a pretend cell phone to her hand
JC - "Hello, Santa Claus? Hi, this is JaneClaire. You can please remove Silas from the naughty list. Ok? Thank you!"

JC then looks at Silas and said "See what I did for you little boy? I took your name from the naughty list and you will now get presents."

I'll take days like this over a paycheck any day!
