Monday Morning:
Me: Griffin! Go get dressed. You are going to be late.
Griffin: (dawdling)
Me: Griffin. Go get dressed!
Griffin: (distracted by something shiny)
Me: Griffin! I swear, if I have to tell you one more time! Go--get--dressed!
Griffin: (disappears into his room)
(Much time passes.)
Me: Griffin?
(silence)
Me: Griffin!
(silence)
Me: (yelling downstairs) Is Griffin down there?
Griffin: (Walks out of his bedroom--completely naked.) Sorry I didn't answer you.
Me: Griffin! What have you been doing?
Griffin: Getting dressed.
Me: (Walking him back into his bedroom.) No, you haven't. I've told you a million times to get dressed and you're still naked. What is taking so long?!
Griffin: (pointing with wide eyes.) This book.
Monday Night:
Logan: Mom? Did you ever have a crush on someone when you were my age?
Me: Oh, sure.
Logan: Who?
Me: Rod Winland.
Logan: Was he a nice boy?
Me: Of course. He was my very good friend. We even shared the same birthday.
Logan: Why didn't you marry him?
Me: Well, he moved away and went to a different school, and things were different when we got older, you know.
Logan: Oh...well, if I had a crush on a boy would you help me know how to get him to like me?
Me: (gulp)

Ha! That was funny. My Mr. Destructo thinks that being in his underwear IS dressed, so, Griffin was almost done.
I think I'm lucky my daughter's not too into boys so far--yours is too smart. :)
Laurel- I never would have guessed you and Rod. Hmmmm!? Still trying to get passed that.
I am laughing, so cute those kids are!! Oh, and Rod Winland, never knew..lol!
I love it. I think every family has to have a dawdler. I love your conversation with Logan. How cute is she... so the real question is are you helping her?
