We love our Graham

-The other night Graham had been in bed (on a school night) for a half hour or so when he came downstairs.  

Graham:  Can I go outside and play with my friends?
Me:  No, you were already in bed.
Graham:  Ok, I'll just go and tell them I can't come out.
Me:  No (I know if he goes out he'll never get back to bed).
Graham:  (Starts walking towards the door)
Me:  Graham, if you go outside you'll owe me jobs in the morning.
Graham: (Goes back upstairs)

2 min. later

Graham: (Comes down dressed in jeans, shirt, and shoes)
Me:  What are you doing?
Graham:  So, I'll just owe you jobs in the morning.
Me:  NO (trying not to laugh) go back to bed.

-Now that Graham is in first grade he tells me that he only wants to wear boxer underwear.  He doesn't want super heroes on it either, just something like stripes.

-Graham's first grade teacher just told the class that she is expecting.  She said that some of the kids started asking how the baby got there.  She said she sort of started to panic because she hadn't seen that coming and thought that was something they would ask their parents.  Then she said Graham spoke up and told everyone that Heavenly Father put it there.  (Graham denies this if you ask him about it).

He is such a character, I love it! By the way this is your sis. I think that I figured out why mom couldn't comment.

Ha! What a kid!! That is so funny! Doesn't want superheroes on his undies anymore?? Such a big step for a little guy. Seems like it was just yesterday I had this adorable sunbeam on my lap to keep in primary! He's getting so big so fast!

We must be blogging at the same time...just read your comment on my blog. I should be fired from my calling...totally spaced baptisms today! Camry came in and asked me why it said 'baptisms at 10:00' on the calendar! Duh!! I might need a reminder phone call about Wed...but I am writing it down...a alot of good that does me though!!

Way to go Graham for always keeping you on your toes. And I bet his teacher appreciated his help with the baby explanation.

Chelsea said...

Graham is still hilarious. So did he go out and play?
