Big Boy Quote...

Trying to teach the Boy the art of polite conversation...

Boy to his sister, "Caroline you will hand me the bottled water."
Mommy, "Son, say that nicer."
Boy, "You will hand me the water now, please?"
Mommy, "Stop telling her what she will do and ask her if she would please..."
Boy, "May you please give me the water now? There! I gave her a compliment. A different kind of compliment. Can you may please give me the water now?"

Trying to teach the Boy personal hygiene...

Mommy, "Did you put on deoderant?"
Boy, "Nope... I put on something else. Did you know you can put chapstick in your arm pods?"
