Summer Fun!

My kids have decided to play that classic game this summer. It's called lets see how much we can annoy daddy before threatens to beat us.

Girl Friend says...

Boy Child tried to "break up" with his girl friend today because he likes another girl. Response from said girl friend "Shut up, you aren't allowed to break up with me". So now Boy Child wants to know if it is ok to just ask out the other girl since he tried. Oh, need I remind you he is all of 6 years old.

Me: Boy Child, let's go for a hike this morning.
Boy Child: No thanks
Me: Ok, then you are going to clean your room this morning.
Boy Child: So, what time do you want to head to the trails?

And this is how we negotiate in my house.

CODE RED...

Me: What you doing?
Boy Child: Making a color chart.
Me: What do the colors mean?
Boy Child: What kind of mood your in.
Me: Huh?
Boy Child: Yellow means you’re in a good mood, blue means you are annoyed, red means Girl Child and I should probably leave you alone for while.

Boy Child to Girl Child: "Do you want me to tie you up & torture you?"
Girl Child: "No"
Boy Child: "Oh, ok, wanna play cars"

That's MY job?

Boy Child: Dad let's have a better day tomorrow.
Me: Ok, and how do we do that?
Boy Child: How should I know, thats your job

Boy Child: Dad, milk comes from cows right.
Me: Yeap
Boy Child: And ice cream comes from milk.
Me: Yeap
Boy Child: Do ice cream cows live in Alaska to keep them cold?
