Monday blues...

<this morning, we went to get in the car to go work/school and discovered that we'd left BOTH passenger side doors wide open all night... then, we made it a quarter mile down the road when Hudson yelled out>

"SOMEONE FORGOT TO BUCKLE ME IN!!!"

<yikes>

Getting out of bed this morning...

"your bum's sticking out, mom."
"what?"
"your butt. it's sticking out."
"where?"
"here."
<pointing to the back of my PJ pants>
"that's not my bum, hud. that's a muffin top."
"oh. mom?"
"yes, hudson?"
"your muffin top is sticking out."
<doh!>

Out by the lake...

"isn't the lake cool, hudson?"

"YEAH! dad, it IS cool."

"it's like a big bath tub, right?"

"no dad. it's like a swimming pool... for BOATS!"

<genius!>

On the way to swim class...

"mom, can we listen to duster?"

"what, huddy?"

"duster. i want to listen to 'someday.'"

"oh! GUSTER? cool. but i don't have it in mommy's car."

"get it out of dad's car."

<hmmm>

"ok, i'll be right back."

<two minutes later>

"got it!"

"number FOUR, mommom. i want to listen to number FOUR."

<my wildest dream comes true!>

At dinner tonight...

"Namaste."

"What, Hudson?"

"Namaste."

<smile>

"Momma?"

"Yes, Woo?"

"Naaaaaaaa-maaaaa-stay, Naaaaaaaa-maaaaa-stay, this is how we start our yoga day. Naaaaaaaa-maaaaa-stay, Naaaaaaaa-maaaaa-stay, this is how we end our yoga day. Yay!"

<claps>

<AMAZING>

<love PF>

Sitting down to dinner...

<after trying to steal his porcelain dinner plate from the counter...>

"Mom?"

"Yes, Hudson?"

"I almost knocked over my dinner. I know that would've been bad."

"Yes, it would have been."

"But nobody would cry, mom."

"What do you mean, Hud?"

"When I do bad things, you should be HAPPY."

"Really? I should?"

"Yes, mom."

Driving to school with Dad...

"Dad?"

"Yeah, Hud."

"We can't be friends anymore."

"Why not?"

"Well... I love you, dad. But I don't like your face."
