"D-U-N"

Last night Jackson was in the shower, and I called to him, "Jackson, are you done yet?" He says, "Yes, I am done." I started to tease him and said, "What? You're Dumb?" Jackson says, "NO! I am DONE!" I asked again "You're dumb?" Jackson then says, "No MOM, I am done!!! D-U-N!"
"Oh okay..."

The value of a hard days work...

Claire was in the kitchen carrying around a plastic Winnie the Pooh plate. We heard a crash and Claire says "I broke the plate." I said, "well, just throw it away then" Brandon asks, "Claire, Do you know how many days it took me to earn the money to buy that plate?" Claire asks, "How many?" Brandon says, "Like 4 whole days!" Claire says, "Well, that's not very many."

My little man

Jackson was outside in the garage the other day helping Brandon. Brandon came inside to get a couple things and shortly afterwards Jackson came in asking for a bandaid. The conversation went as follows:
Stacie: Hi jackson
Jackson: Hi Mom, Can I have a bandaid? I hurt my hand.
Stacie: How did you hurt your hand? Were you playing with Dad's tools? You know you are not supposed to do that unless he's there...
Brandon: Jackson!!! What have I told you about messing with my tools?
Jackson: But Dad!! I was trying to be a MAN!
