Three funny stories

There aren't any pictures today (and you'll be grateful after one of the stories), but these three moments of my day are worth retelling.

Pearce's funny moment:
On the way home from school, we always have great conversations. We were listening to the news and Obama came up (wonder of wonders). Pearce chimed in, "Mom, did you know that for every $100 you have, Obama wants to give $50 to people who are too lazy to get off their butts and get a job?" After laughing hysterically, I asked him where he was getting his information (I knew it wasn't from my uber-liberal ex). He replied quite snootily, "ALL my friends are Republican."

Cole's funny moment:
Today, Cole became "that kid." You know "that kid", right? The one that vomits in the classroom? Yes, Cole became that kid. Specifically, he became the sniper-vomitter. Not the runnner (the ones who tries to make it to the door), or the announcer-vomitter (the one who throws up so loud the Jr. High up the road knows it). Cole quietly vommitted so that the kids around him had to inform the teacher. At least, that's how Cole described it. To make the moment funny instead of just sad, when I picked Cole up from the nurse, he announced to everyone in the office that there were still 'chunks of kolache' in the output. And that he found it interesting that the color was red after drinking a grape drink for breakfast. That kid...

Stone's funny moment:
Stone went with me to Praise Team practice last night. In the nursery, they have a speaker that pipes in sound from the sanctuary so the volunteers can hear worship. This was a conversation he had with Jennifer, the woman who was taking care of him:

Stone "Is that my mommy singing?"
Jennifer "Yes."
Stone "That's my Mommy singing up there?" (pointing at the speaker in the ceiling)
Jennifer, "Yes, it is!"
Stone "Can we go see her up there?"
Jennifer "No, we can't see her up there."
Stone "Get a ladder."

Cade has some big, funny shoes to fill, no???
