The boys are back in school. Grant is doing fine so far (Kindergarten is such a big deal) but I am shaking my head at my 7th and 11th graders.
A post on that is coming soon. I’ll get that up as soon as I’m finished driving all over town to return PE shoes that weren’t needed (Oh! Mom! I forgot I don’t have PE anymore) find headgear that was left at the orthodontist’s, get more school supplies, etc.
Grant the 5 year old hit the nail on the head with this little gem:
“Do you know what I call Conner when he does something dumb? Con-nerd.”
Emily says
Con-nerd…that’s a good one!
Kelli says
That is a classic…Go Grant!
Connie Weiss says
Can’t wait to hear all of the stories!
Becky says
Do you know it’s illegal to commit suicide? Or some crazy law like that…so that if you don’t succeed and already feeling pretty sucky, then you are in trouble with the law? Geez! Makes ya want to try that much harder, huh?! Stupid.
The start of school is one of the busiest times of the year!! Good luck returning those shoes:)
shortmama says
LOL Connerd
J.J. says
con-nerd…hee hee!
I also wonder whoe the $200 fine would be billed to upon your death for touching that thing.
Housewife Savant says
I called Mr. an Asstard yesterday. I don’t know if I made it up or if it launched from the vault, but if Grant uses the word I get credit. (He gets the washing-out-of-the-mouth.)
I used to introduce Mr. as my step husband.
Irrelevant, I know.

Leave it to the little brother to get it right!!

Very smart kid that Grant! Looking forward to your back to school posts.
MiMi says
Ha! Connerd. That’s awesome. I can’t wait to read your upcoming post! And seriously? Head hear? I didn’t even know they still used that torture device.
Lynn says
My daughter used to call son, Rob, “Nimrob”
And I’ll have to let Kelly know too, that I always introduce my hub of 44 years, “This is my first husband.”
Krystyn says
That Grant is a natural comedian!
PS Still haven’t mailed your prize…I know, I suck! I’ll get it out soon!

Con-nerd. Witty beyond his years, that one.
mama-face says
I guess this is the point; but how are they gonna fine you after you are dead? HAHAHA. Yeah, dumb comment but I had to say it. I must love overkill? I’m sure my kids think I do.
Con-nerd. Good boy. My boy tells me the different versions of our last name he hears and we have to tell him it’ll get much worse. Sad fact of life. You’ll have to guess our last name though.
Which is much different than being clever about it…
Xazmin says
Con-nerd…that’s awesome!

Grant is an amazingly smart little dude.
