Conversations with Tooter

Scene:
Tooter and Mommy are looking at a puzzle of the United States of America that he had just finished.  Each state was a different color.  He was pointing to the state names and asking Mommy "what is that name?  What is that name?"

Tooter:  What is that name?
Mommy:  That is Utah.
Tooter:  Me-tah?
Mommy:  No, Utah.
Tooter:  Not Utah, ME-tah!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tooter:  Mommy, may I have some popcorn?
Mommy:  Sure.
2 minutes later...
Tooter:  Mommy, what are you making?
Mommy:  Honey, I'm making popcorn, like you wanted.
Tooter:  I don't want popcorn!  I don't liiiike it.
Mommy, not without exasperation:  Well, then, what do you think you want for a snack?
Tooter:  I want popcorn!

The above are real conversations, without a bit of exaggeration.  It's a wonder I have any hair left at ALL.  It's a good thing he's cute.  ;-)

Hair, yes, but is it still blonde or turning gray at an amazing rate? It is a good thing he's cute. ;-)

Well, I can't top the Idaho comment - I laughed at that as much as I laughed at your post!!!

Love the popcorn conversation. I have had a few of those through the years with Brandon.
