My kid is better than yours

Yes, yes, I know. Every mother says this. We all think our kids can do no wrong.

Wait, that may be a lie. I'm on Twitter and Facebook. All I can say is kids do some crazy things!!

My son may have his own list of crazy things, but I've realized lately that he is a genius. Hence better than your kid.

He learned how to whistle in a matter of minutes.

He also learned how to blow a bubble with gum in a matter of minutes.

Both feats he accomplished much earlier and much faster than his big sister.


The boy also has some mad skills when it comes to Star Wars Legos. I can't tell you how many times the husband has watched him play and made comments about how hard a particular level is. It took the husband a few tries to beat said level. Before I know it, the husband is walking away, shaking his head. The boy has beat said level. The first time. Oh, the shame of being beat in a video game by a 5 year old!


I'm sure I'm making you jealous by this point, so there's probably no need to tell you how wonderful of an artist he is, too. Really, you should see my walls!

And not only can he color on the windows, too but he excels at any arts and crafts project. Just pretend you don't notice the glue in my carpet that I can't figure out how to remove.


Not only is my prodigal child great at doing things, he is also a creative thinker.

His back has been incredibly itchy the past few days. Right in that one spot you can never reach. I'm blaming the tags on his shirts because lord knows, there's nothing there!. He was complaining once again in the car on the way to the store. I told him I would take a peek as soon as I parked. Instead of waiting the 2 minutes, he found an object in the car that he could use to scratch his itch. See? Creative thinking.


The only thing is, the object was a pen. Can you guess which end he used to scratch his itch?

Have you ever tried to wash black ink off a child in a public restroom. Fun times!



I really need to stop taking this kid to store!



Until next time....

Hey some times an itch is an itch and it needs immediately needs relief, no matter what it takes ;)

Evonne I love it. Go lil man! You know you could have waited til you got HOME to take care of cleaning the ink off his back if he was wearing a shirt. Trust me it would NOT have killed either one of you. As for the glue on your carpet depends on what kind it is if its regular school/craft glue then the best thing to do would be to soak the area with warm/hot soapy water and use a stiff bristle scrub brush and brush/scrub the carpet fibers really well to get the glue out.

I hate when I have an itch on my back that I can't reach! I don't blame him for using the pen. Perhaps he could have made sure it was closed, but man, those are just details. ;-)
