Sunday Funnies

...I am going to be fine,
I am too stubborn to fail at anything,
including healing and Hope.

that said...

I have decided that if I have the time to blog
I am going to share the cute things my kids do
or say that make me smile,
and something I am thankful for each day.

Positive thoughts; positive momentum forward.

This week as I picked Elijah up from school, alone,

because his older siblings are tying out for the school play,

I DELIGHTED in listening to him talk.

He had so much to say
and I was THANKFUL for the time with him.

I think that he sometimes is quiet
because everyone else is so noisy.

He is a DANG cute kid.

I wish that everything he said would be as cute to you all,

but I have seen your blogs,

you have cute moments and funny kids too,

[which i enjoy...smiles...]

and seriously cool lives....actually that being said [the cool word]...

I have a story.

My story is my thing that made me smile today.

Elijah was talking non stop,

the boys at school,

THE GIRLS at school

- remember he is 7.

He was talking about the teams his friends are on.

I asked, teams, like sports, are you playing games.

Oh no, he says, not sports.

Actually the entire interaction

between kids these days is like a sport,

with NEW rules, not olden day style.

So, he is telling me about all these kids

and the funny events of the day.

He is laughing hilariously at himself.

So I said, "Sounds like you have a lot of friends,

you must be a COOL kid."

And that, my blogger friends, is where my STORY comes in.

"COOL kids," he responds,

"OH NO, that is the OTHER TEAM.

My team is AWESOME.

We are definitely not

Constipated, Outdated, Overweighted, Losers."

HELLO, what was I thinking.

It is so not cool to be COOL.


So, YOU, you are awesome.

You are the awesome team.

I am not sure that I know ANYONE who is cool these days.

And, it is Over WEIGHTED, not over RATED....I also learned that tidbit.

KIDS these days.

FUNNY!
