In Gabriel's words....

Yesterday when Sophia said her doll baby was sick, Gabe's response was "well I can smash her face in...that will make her better." ( I honestly tried not too lose it right there in front of Sophia, who was just appalled at the thought!)

He has a reading project in school for the next 3 months where he needs to read at least 6 books a month and do a little write-up about the book in order to take part in a monthly ice cream social, things have not been going well, this is the last week of the month we still need 2 more books, he is procrastinating, we are donating the ice cream, he response was "Mom, it doesn't matter anyway because so far only 4 people in my class have read the 6 books, so if I don't finish I won't be the only one." (Now I am appalled that he is thinking so lazily at 5 years of age, what is going to happen next year when he has homework EVERY night that is due the next day?)

" Mom, you aren't driving fast enough you are only going 40...the sign say you can go 45, go 45" I worry about the time he FINALLY gets a driver's license!
