Henry Concerned about My Farmer Image
Henry: Dad, when we move to Iowa do you think you'll have hair?
Me: No, I think that's pretty unlikely.
(pause)
Henry: Do you think you'll look better as a farmer with hair or without?
Pig Nose
“Dad, since your nose is so pointy like Aunt Katie’s, does it hurt to push it up, like a pig nose?”
“Mom, I think in the future, you should be able to say “God, I think heaven is a place you should be able to travel to.” That way people could check it out and not be so afraid of dying.”
Clever Girl
Adeline and Truman with the Christmas candle thing.
Proofpoint that we don't eat carbs?
Adeline: What is that bread called? The one that looks like a donut?
Mitchell & Jess: A bagel?
Adeline: Oh, yeah. A bagel.
“It’s only one week until Christmas!?!?! It feels like it’s only November. It’s too warm to be Christmas time.”
Bilingual humor
Mitchell (to Jess): I really did have mono when I was younger.
Henry (overhearing our conversation): You had mono?
Mitchell: Yes
Henry: I thought you had dos manos! Hahaha!
Mommy's Christmas Gift
Me: What are you going to get Mommy for Christmas?
“I was going to get her a diamond ring, but then I found out they’re really expensive.”
When I get older ...
Conversation while putting Truman to bed.
“Truman: Mom, when I get older I think I want to be a Popsicle maker.
Jess: A Popsicle maker when you’re older? That could be fun.
Truman: Yeah, like when I’m Henry’s age.”
