This Saturday, as we left the soccor fields, Griffin was slow to get his seat belt on.
"You know, Griff, I would think you would listen the first time we asked you to put your seat belt on considering what happened this week," his daddy scolded.
"Yeah," Logan chimed in, "Mommy got a ticket because you didn't listen..." and then she launched into a long winded reprimand about obeying the law. Mr. Wicke and I stopped listening, happy enough to let someone else give the lecture on "listening and obeying" for once, but then this little phrase, said in her most serious teaching voice, caught our ear:
"...for example, if you killed somebody you would have to go to jail because nobody likes dead people."
Hmmm...On second thought maybe Mr. Wicke and I should be in charge of those lectures for a little while longer, that is if we can stop laughing long enough to speak.

Very funny! Jane really likes to tell everyone around here how it is, too. I always have to remind that she isn't the mom.
Responded to your comment on my blog...
How do you think we all got to be such experts in lecturing...we started young. Too funny! I'm not particularly fond of dead people either.
Very cute! And please give the camera to Mr. Wicke and let him take a photo of your BELLY!!! PLEASE!!!
