kqotd

it's a working day here today...so i have the tv set to a music station - basically a 'kidz bop' type thing...

maya heads downstairs to add something to the donate pile...

she goes running back upstairs...

"OH - i can't listen to it! Justin Bieber is on - OH THE HORROR!! THE HORROR!"

kqotd

i send maya to the garage fridge to fetch a beer so i can boil up brats for tonight's dinner...

maya: here it is...bud light*

porter: beer...the bestest thing in the world

maya: you've never tasted it!

porter: that's what the tv says!

*beer disclaimer* the only reason bud light is in our fridge is for the purpose of boiling brats....

chores

one of the kids' chores is to set the table...and we're working on incorporating clearing the table into that routine...

so this morning, it was porter's job to clear all of the ingredients for breakfast burritos off the counter...

and then he whined that he didn't know where things went...

jason "so...if you were a jalapeno, where would you live in the fridge?!"

porter stares. and then points to a shelf...

jason "you'd live with your cousins the relish and the pickles?"

porter "yes"

jason "then you'd be right!"

made me laugh. and jason said it felt like a sesame street morning.
