Lyrical Laughs

(I keep wanting to add photos for the funny things the kids say - it just adds something to each post. In so doing, however, I've fallen behind on updating. In order to keep this blog going I may have to forgo some photos....but for now....)

A couple of weeks ago I had a song stuck in my head. I was singing it while preparing lunch for the kids as Tyler sweetly painted his craft project at the bar. After a few rounds of singing the chorus, "Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep", Tyler turns around and looks at me.

"Mom, I don't think you are supposed to say that."

"What, Tyler? Mommy is just singing."

Tyler paused for a minute, looked around to make sure no one else was listening, and whispered, "ass!!".

It took me a minute, but then (somehow without laughing) I said, "No, Tyler, the song is 'Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep." (We discussed how, yes, we aren't supposed to say the other word.)

He quickly said, "Oh" and fidgeted for a minute. After a long pause, he said,

"I'm just going to go back to painting".
