Funny Ethan

Ethan at his school preformance

Ethan has been saying some funny things lately. Tomorrow he has a Thanksgiving feast at school so we signed up to bring some turkey sandwiches. On the way to Target Ethan asked me what we were getting and I told him turkey for his feast. He said, "We are going to buy a dead turkey?" I explained that we would be buying lunch meat that is already sliced for us. He said, "Oh yeah, it's already been hunted and killed." When he was saying this I envisioned this dead semi-feathered turkey hanging in Target. I'm grateful we can buy it nicely packaged for us. :)

Yesterday we helped watch Elise while Heather worked for the day. Her old employer needed extra help and asked Heather if she could fill in for the week.  It was fun to get to know Elise better. Living in LA we don't see her that often and she is a total mama's girl! Since Heather was gone Elise didn't have many options so she learned to like me. At one point Elise was really tired and was rubbing her eyes. She was facing her palms out with her thumb tucked in and Ethan said, "Elise is making 4's on her eyes."

The other day when doing math with Ethan, the word problem talked about chickens laying eggs where he had to draw the chicken laying eggs and add it to what another chicken had layed. He drew the chicken with an oval mouth and said, "I put a mouth like that because the chicken just farted out two eggs." In the moment it was so funny and took me off guard. We both got a good laugh out of it.

A few nights ago while driving I was singing in the car when Ethan said, "Mom, do you want to be a rockstar when you grow up?" I said, "Yes, I do. Why?" He said, "Because you sing a lot." This kid is too cute!
