Cash found a lizard outside today.
Cash: Can I take him home?
Me: Well you'll have to ask your mom when she gets here.
Cash: (pulling some old movie ticket stubs out of his pocket) Ya, I can take him home. I have tickets for a lizard.
Fortunately for the lizard it was able to make an escape later :)
life as a wife and mother may not always be perfect... but I am definitely always Jolley

Ninjas
JT: Mom, ninjas wear black suits. I wonder where I can buy a ninja suit? Maybe at a ninja store.
Mom: Do you want to be a ninja for Halloween?
JT: No, maybe Sonic. But I don't want you to be a Diamond Standard cause that's not cool. Maybe Princess Peach instead.
(To explain, the diamond standard is actually a phrase from a dishwashing detergent commercial! It's Finish: The Diamond Standard. For some reason that commercial stuck in his head and for months afterwards he would see it on the TV and force me to watch it over and over again.)

Old story
This is from February:
We were at the park for playgroup. I was sitting at a picnic table when JT ran up to me and sat across from me. Here's how the conversation went :)
JT: Hey mom, I just want to chit chat.
Mom: What do you want to chit chat about?
JT: Hmm...kitties. [turning around to talk to all his friends/cousins at the park] Hey, who wants to sit and chit chat with me about kitties?
Ashlyn: Well, I want to go play...who wants to go play with me?
JT: I do [running off to go play]

Funny
I was reading to JT an abridged version of the Legend of Sleepy Hollow. He heard the words headless horseman and immediately thought of Scooby Doo.
JT: Phantom's how you say ghost-with-a-blanket-on-his-head...[slight pause] in Spanish
