The Wha....??

Justin cut a few branches out of our many trees this weekend, and Izzie harvested them to make a play hut in the trash corral while the cans were out on the street. At dinner from the patio that evening the conversation went like this:

Justin: Laura, look at Izzie's fort!
Laura: Very nice, Izzie!
Izzie: Dad, it's a dam fort.

*Justin and Laura giggle uncontrollably for the next ten minutes or so.*

Well, she said it. It takes every ounce of my self-control to not pee my pants every time I tell the kids to go play in the dam fort. I know, I'm just that immature.

That's a pretty impressive dam fort she built!

Holly said...

My kids are jealous of it so I told them to go out and make their own dam fort!

Amy said...

I'm immature, too. I understand! Giggle away!

You guys are so funny, I've gotten more giggles out of this today than I may have even before! I love kids. :-)

Did you make her a dam lunch to eat in her dam fort while she was playing with her dam friends and dam toys?

You should see us crossing any kind of man made reservoir. We put your immature to shame. :-)

Reminds me of the time when Grace's favorite planet was Uranus.

Hilarious! Kids sayings are some of the best because they really are so genuine in the funny-ness (is that even a word?!). Please post more about your life in St. Louis - I want to hear more about how things are going!

oh and ps

Bryson is reading President Kimball's biography...he was known to say damn quite a bit, without ever referencing something a beaver (or Lizzie) would make. Maybe Lizzie and President Kimball are kindred spirits! :)

and I meant to say Izzie - man I'm totally wiping out tonight....maybe it's bed time instead of blogging time. Psshhhaw - that would be too responsible of me.
