Tall Tales of Grandpa

On the way home with boys tonight Alex once again said something about Jack being "weird." I didn't even have to say anything about not using "hurt words" as Jack jumped right in and the following conversation ensued.

JACK: Alex, you have been saying that ever since Grandpa and Grandma Joyce last came to our house.

ALEX: Have not!

JACK: Yes you have!! You kept telling Grandpa he was weird and he said you were weird, and you'd say you weren't and he was. Grandpa is NOT weird - if Grandpa is weird than you are too.

ALEX: I said he was weird because he kept sitting on us!

JACK: Yeah, well I like it when he sits on us, it's funny.

ALEX: I can't breathe when he sits on me - he's too big and I'm too little. You really like it?

JACK: I do, it's funny! I also like trying to eat his thumb.

ALEX: Yeah, I like that game - I almost got it once!

JACK: I did bite it - but not hard.

ALEX: That's good, we shouldn't hurt Grandpa, even if he does sit on me.

Okay - let me just say that I have NEVER seen my father-in-law sit on either boy. He plays with them, they laugh and tickle, but NEVER have I seen all this sitting and finger biting they both talked about in such detail. I will have to keep my eyes open when they get here at the end of the week . . .
