A note for me to remember...

So we are sitting at the dinner table tonight and Logan said the most amazing thing. He always amazes me with his logic. He is 5 and half years old. We were just having a casual conversation over dinner and I asked him like I always do...about what was his favorite part of the day. He explained about how he liked the nice kids. And he recalled a story of one of the kids on our street who had been not so nice that day. Then we had this exact conversation.
Logan: So, I will put the good things in blue and put them on this side of my brain. And then I will make the bad things in red and put them on this side of my brain(pointing to the other side of his head). My brain is a machine you know. And then I will lock them up so that I remember. And I have a key that will make me see everything.
Me: what do you mean the good things are blue?
Logan: You know, the good things that you tell me to do. Everything starts out white (he is pointing and waving his hands right in front of his eyes) and then if it's good I paint it blue and move it over to this side of my brain(moves his hand to the right side of his head) and then it's locked in my brain. And all of the bad things that you tell me not to do are red and I put them on this side(pointing to the left side).
Me: what is something that is blue?
Logan: ummmm, playing with my nice friends.
Me: what is something red?
Logan : Not to play with the kids who are not nice to all the kids all the time.
Me: did someone teach you this about your brain?
Logan: No, I made it up.

I love that kid!!!!!

This is the tree in our side yard that the boys have learned how to climb...and get stuck in. Andrew snuck out the other day and I didn't know it. He got stuck in the tree and just waited until a neighbor across the street drove up. He couldn't remember her name so he called out "Hey You!...Yeah, You! Can you get me out of this tree?" Chrissy couldn't stop laughing and helped him down. I heard him calling her and came out to watch the rescue. That little rascal ALWAYS sneaks out and my neighbors have to send him back in. I can only take a shower while he is at school or asleep, because that is his favorite time for a getaway. Good thing we live in such a safe place. Oh, and by the way, the matching red superhero shirts they have on are courtesy of themselves at the NEX. We went in the other day, and they both pulled the tags off of these shirts, and took of the shirts they were wearing and put on these shirts. Then they came up and said "Mom,can we buy these?" they also did this with a new pair of shoes for each of them...red crocs for Logan and Teva flip flops for Andrew. Now, I can only shopping while they are at school too!! They are sooooo full of mischief and fun!
