"I'm joining the party" or "Brody, please don't stand on your brother's head."

Ultimate Blog Party 2009

Okay, so there are words I NEVER thought I would hear come out of my mouth. Like, "Because I said so!" but that's for the obvious reason that we all hated to hear that from our own parents mouths. Then there's the words I never thought I'd hear for a totally different reason. One of those reasons is that I just never thought of certain words ever linking together in one sentence. I was on the phone and didn't really hear myself until my friend started laughing and then I thought to myself, "Oh my gosh! Did I actually just hear myself say, "Brody, please don't stand on your brother's head."? I did! Did I? NO! Yes, I really did! Here's the thing that's really crazy to me. Brody saw what he wanted and the way to get taller was to stand on his little brother's head. So did he see a stool in his mind? Or did he see his brother's head? Did he even stop to think about what he was doing? According to Brody, nothing was going through his head. How is that possible?! Is this a boy thing? And then I am reminded that I started this blog because of the crazy and wonderful things I hear, coming not only out of my own mouth, but out of his. What memories! Oh, the joys that children bring. Without them could we laugh at ourselves as much as we do? Could we laugh, in general, as much as we do? So, this time my thoughts are not about what he said but about what I said and maybe in future I'll reveal some more of my own silliness!

Now, I am going to join the Ultimate Blog Party 2009 and have some fun meeting other bloggers! Won't you join me in some silliness? You might even win some prizes whether you're a blogger or not!
