Who knew?

I guess my Mom-style is quirky.

My approval rating is lower than Bush's

Robert has devised a "fairometer" which measures how fair I am. I got a 20%. Jim got a 35 % (oh, and he's funnier than I am too).

How sweet

Robert likes to tease his brother by saying "You don't like Mommy." Jonathan always protests that he does, in fact, like Mommy, and makes a point of coming to me and telling me that he likes me. He likes me! He really likes me!

Sir, yes sir!

We were attending a meeting on campus for Robert's summer camp. It was held in the ROTC room, and had Army posters on every wall. The camp counselors were introducing themselves, and as one young man was saying his name, Robert yelled out the message on one of the posters : "Are you Army strong?" I believe he said "No", but we were all laughing so loudly I'm not sure.
Jonathan had picked up something off the floor and had it in his mouth (yuck) . It turned out to be bits of carrot. I asked Jonny if he'd spit them up. He said "No, down."

Such good manners

Jonathan has developed really good manners. I asked him to clear his place at the dinner table, and he said "No thank you!"
