Scene 1: Getting ready for school…
Mom:
“Grant, get out of bed.”
“Grant, eat your toast.”
“Grant, please put down the Legos.”
“Grant, please hurry or you won’t have time to play on the playground before school.”
Scene 2: Walking Grant to school….
Mom:
“Grant, you better hurry up or you won’t have time to play.”
“Grant, you do not need to take each newspaper you see on the sidewalk and throw it on that house’s drive way.”
“Grant, I don’t want to get on my hands and knees and smell that flowering ground cover.”
“No, I didn’t see the kitty, but I will trust you that you saw one.”
“Buddy! Come on! If you don’t walk like a normal person, you will not have time to play on the playground before school starts!”
Scene 3: The kindergarten playground.
Grant is there about 3 minutes when the bell rings.
Grant: (loudly, eliciting laughs from parents and teachers alike)
“What!!?? I didn’t even have time to get my hands dirty!!”
Quite a kid you have there!
We are slow as molasses too! I’m sure the teachers were glad he went in with clean hands though!
LOL My Cara is the SAME way! I always think of that Family Circus cartoon where the kid is supposed to go from point A to point B and ends up winding all the way around the neighborhood instead of going straight there, ya know?
LOL! That’s great. 🙂
He is so funny!
My Makenna is such a slow-poke! She’s been that way from the time she could walk.
This was your fault.
And Grant agrees.
Ha! Too funny…the story of my life.
Hilarious! My Libby is slow as Christmas too! She can’t do anything without getting sidetracked!
He’s a keeper!
You walk to school? Oh Hell to the NO! That would require getting dressed in the morning and doing something with my face and hair. Nope not me! I drive Peanut to school still in my jammies with my
cup-o-jo in hand!
You’re a Rock Star Mom!
I have one of those at home too. Does everything EXCEPT what you wan them to do.
Gotta love them boys!

Just watched the first episode of CSI Miami – – – Eric is still on there, did they change their minds and keep him?
Maddie was that SAME way. She’s gotten a little better as the years go by, thank God.
He is pretty darn cute though.
Cherish it, though. That is cute as pie.
Every single day I have to repeat the routine for the 8 year old…get up, get dressed, eat breakfast.etc.
What would they do without us Moms?
I don’t think this comment makes any sense…but I tried. My heart is in the right place! 🙂
I have visions of my future after reading this.
wait til he’s a teenager, eeeew!
Grant is awesome. Boy do he and Monkey give us some good blogging material or what?
