Funny Things

Joshua in particular has been saying some pretty funny things lately that I wanted to share before I forget them all.

He saw a car idling and said, "Hey, why is he letting out exhaust? Why is he wasting gas?" (Hmmm...must be the environmentalist in Mommy getting through to him...)

He told his first joke all on his own, a twist on the classic "why did the boy throw the clock out the window?" His version went like this: "Why did the boy throw the house out the window?" "Why?" "He wanted to see a housefly!" I don't know if he caught the double meaning but he thought it was hilarious anyway.

The other night we were going out after the boys were in bed, and as Joshua went to bed he tried to persuade us not to go. We told him we were going to some stores and to get coffee and talk, and he responded tearfully, "No, don't go to any stores. We already have enough stuff!"
