Another Bradenism to tempt the corners of the mouth...

So, Braden was sitting in the computer chair and the rest of the kids were orbiting him like smaller satellites.  They were tickling and giggling and being their normal silly selves when all of a sudden Sam and I hear Braden telling his audience, "Don't touch there!  Its my no-no rectangle!" Well, after that how are you supposed to maintain composure?!  Sam and I could.not.stop.laughing...could not stop!  I'm just glad that I wasn't drinking anything because either I would have choked or everyone in the splash zone would have gotten a shower. :)  Of course, the kids got a hold of it and decided to milk it for all its worth and tried to come up with as many names as possible: private square (staying with the shapes theme), private spot, no-no spot, no-no rectangle and no-no square were ones I caught before I could stand the silliness no longer.  Yet another peek into the inner thought process that is Braden's mind. :)

According to Braden

Apparently, as far as boys are concerned, the term "playdate" is applicable only to girls.  According to Braden boys would prefer to use "hanging out" instead. :)  He's totally at that age....

Bradenisms return!

Sam and I were just sitting on the couch and Braden was at the dining table.  He turned to us and said, "What if girls were sumo wrestlers instead of boys.....?"  I said, "That would be disturbing."  Then, he said, "That would be silly because their overall thingys would show."  Sam asked,  "What did he call it?"  And Braden replied, "You know the little thingys that cover their bosoms."  Sam and I started laughing uncontrollably and Braden continued on..., "Then their bellies would show because they couldn't wear a shirt."  We laughed a good 5 minutes after that until I was able to stop enough to get up and get a tissue to wipe my eyes and write it all in this post.
