Some recent Buddy-isms


As we were on our way to pick up Mimi from school the other day, I couldn't take my headache any longer and exclaimed, "My head is going to explode!" Within seconds of me saying that, I heard from the back of the van, "Yeah and my head's gonna shoot lava!" Although my headache didn't go away, it sure felt good to giggle at that! And every time I think of his little four-year-old voice gone gravel-y and serious as he said it, I just giggle again!


As I was tucking Buddy into bed tonight he said something like this: "I've had this blanket a long time. I've had this blanket for forty years, just like the Israelites!" Huh? "The Israelites were in the desert for forty years and that's how long I've had this blanket."


Buddy has invented what he calls his "Big Boy Sandwich". On our way home this evening he told me he wanted his Big Boy sandwich for dinner. D has never heard of/seen this sandwich before, so I asked Buddy to tell Daddy about it. Buddy's response: "First you have a piece of bread, then you put a bunch of burritos on it and then a piece of ham and then another bread on top!" D and I started laughing at the image of a bunch of burritos on the sandwich. (Please note: The second ingredient in the Big Boy Sandwich is actually Doritos, NOT Burritos!)

LOL - that's a great phrase about shooting lava! I love what kids come up with. I think we'll have to implement that one around our house.

Cutie boy! I was having a good time immagining a buch of burritos too. Also I hope the heads at you house have not erupted, that could get really messy!
