Month: January 2013

Isaac [looking at a picture of a snowy sunset]:  “Where’s that?  It’s beautiful.”
Richard: “North Dakota. Maybe we should move there.”
Isaac: “No!  I’d miss my friends!”
Richard: “You would make new friends.”
Isaac: “How?!   Almost nobody lives there!”

Isaac [looking for a reason to be sad]:  “Dad, I’m worried about the baby?”

Richard: “Oh no, why?”

Isaac: “One day he will be an old man like you and die.  I hope they invent a medicine to save him.”

Richard: “Yeah, me too.  Thanks.”

Paige [holding a baby]:  “He just filled his diaper.”
Isaac: “With what?!?!”

Richard [to Isaac’s Friend]: “Hey Joe, what do you know?”

Joe [with look of disdain]: “Yeah, I hear that a lot.”

Richard: “Sorry. . . “

This is a 3 year old-ism

Paige: “Brian, do you need to blow your nose?”

Brian: “Yes.”

Paige [holding tissue]:  “Oh, okay, you need to blow out, not in.”

Brian: “Oh, okay!”

Late at night, telling scary stories. . . .

Isaac: “Once upon a time there was a monster named Bigfoot Jesus. . . .”

Allison: “Isaac!  We don’t make fun of Jesus!  Or Bigfoot.  Especially Bigfoot!!”

This is a Paige-ism

Paige [to her six year old son]:  “Isaac, I said put on your coat.  That’s a blazer, not a coat!  It’s cold out!”

Richard [laconically, having been forced to attend a basketball game]: “Go Local Sports Team.”

Isaac: “Their name is ‘Local Sports Team’ !?”

Isaac [pondering]:  “Why do some people say ‘Eight Men’ after prayers?”

[guest Isaacism]

Darren [excited]:  “Did you see that?!  I won two races!”

Richard: “Good job!”

[10 minutes later]

Darren [whining]: “Can we go home yet?  This is boring!”

Richard: “Um, I think you’ll want to stay till the end.”

[30 minutes later, Darren holding 2nd Place trophy and smiling]

Announcer:  “Winners will go on to the District to compete again”

Darren: “I have to race again?”

Richard: “You get to!  You get to race against the kids in other Packs who won.  Then we will see who the very, very fastest is.”

Darren [look of horror on his face]: “If I lose, do they take my trophy away?!”
