As I’m preparing dinner, Devin (16) walks into the kitchen, roots through the fridge…. as he’s chugging a tall, cold glass of milk, he asks if there is any sparkling cider leftover from Mother’s Day Brunch.
Me: “No, you finished up the bottle that was open. We have more, but they’re for a special occasion.”
Devin: (already laughing at his own cheese) “But Mom, every day with you is a special occasion.”
They sure learn at an early age how to smooth talk don’t they:)
My 7yr old after put in his room for being REALLY bad, when I stopped by to check on him he said sooo earnestly “nothing is better than YOU, Mom”:)
he is a smooth tawlker!!
wow, that is some cheese! LOL i totally love it.

Oh he’s only get get worse (or is that better) with the one liners!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for your thoughtful comments always. I always look forward to what you have to say here and when you visit.
Oh man, you can’t bottle up that cheese.
Wonder where he learned a goofy line like that?
Words of Wisdom. But tell us, did he get the cider or something thrown at him?
Way to work it Devin! Hi from the SITStahood.
Too funny! Sounds like you have a smartie pants on your hands! :o)
I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day with all your boys and that the brunch you were working on last week went well. I missed having you around!
He is talented! That was off the cuff so fast! : )

Happy Wednesday!

Hi, just stopping by from SITS. I hope you will stop by and read excerpts for my book, Abby’s Between Girlfriends: A Sharing of Marital Secrets. Tell your friends to stop by…
Oh.my…we are going to have to watch out for that one.
Cuts right to the heart of the matter, doesn’t he? Nice smooth talk…and so quick to respond. Gotta love the ingenuity!
Adorable! Smooth talker…I love your family stories…just love ’em!
Cheesy…but totally cute! I would have given it to him for that one.
Welcome to SITS!
That is funny!! I love the part that he starts laughing at his own cheese before he even spits it out. I always start laughing before the punch line.
And you know what’s cool? He meant it, really. You know he did. 🙂
