"Bob, we need to stop at Von's and get some cat litter for Pearl."

"Don't you mean Vi, Mom? Pearl already died before."

"Right. I must be tired."

"And you must miss Pearl."

Take Two

"Hey, hey, Baby. Wanna see my guns?"

"Whoa, Bob. Where did that come from?"

"The Green Lantern says it."

"Okay, well you shouldn't."

"Sorry, Mom."

"Hey, hey... um hi nice girl. Wanna hold hands?"

"Mom, at Brandon's today we played in the tree house."

"That sounds fun."

"We played Super Secret Ninja Spies Spying on Ulysses Who Lives Next Door."

"Was Ulysses home?"

"That was the real mystery."

Under Cover

"What's that picture of Bob?"

"I made a girl with an X."

"Why?"

"It means no girls allowed."

"But most of your friends are girls."

"Sssh, Mom. That's a secret."

You guys! Oh, you guys: this.

I love tiny houses.

Like it, like it.

Happy Sunday.

Smacksy Saturday Photo: Happy Day

What you do see: The birthday cake Bob and I made for Mr. Rosenberg to celebrate his birthday.
What you don't see: Kitty paw prints left in the cake by one Violet Rosenberg. (Cut out and frosting-ed over.)

Of Course

"Mom, I just talked to Brandon on the phone."

"You did?"

"Yeah, on my invisible phone. We were planning  a Lego battle."

"Where are you going to have your Lego battle?"

"Nowhere, Mom. It's pretend."

Missing Him

"Mom, what language do they speak where Dad is on his business trip?"

"In England they speak English."

"But they have an accent there."

"Yep, it's an English accent."

"But we speak English with an English accent."

"No, we speak English with an American accent."

"Okay, but... he's coming home soon, right?"

Ingredients

"Bob, Dad said that you get to pick what kind of cake we make for his birthday."


"Okay. If we did chocolate I wouldn't want carrots in it."

"Me neither."

"But I don't want chocolate. Let's make a strawberry cake."

"Sounds good."

"But still no carrots."

"Got it."

Beachy

"Thanks for the picnic, Mom."

"You bet."

"There's even real sand in these sandwiches!"

The Days

"Mom, how long has summer been so far?"

"About a week."

"It feels faster. I want it to be slow."

"That would be nice."

"I'm pretty sure it would feel slower if we went out for ice cream everyday."

Happy Father's Day.

The Guys - Summer 2008

Treat

"Can I have a chocolate, Mom?"

"No, Bob. You've already had a treat today."

"This day just got sort of bad."

"Sorry."

"Hey, Mom? Why did the chicken cross the road?"

"Why?"

"To get to Bob's bad day."

So Much to Teach

"Dad! I'm starting gymnastics on Friday! Mom signed me up!"

"That's great, Bud. You're going to learn a lot."

"I already have all of the cool moves I made up so I can go there and teach everyone!"

Pop Quiz

"Good night, Bob."

"Good night, Mom... Hey Mom? What the biggest number in the world plus four-hundred?"

"I'm not sure."

"It's biggest-number-in-the-world-four-hundred. I can't believe you didn't know that... Hey, Mom?"

"Yep?"

"Tomorrow's gonna be a good day."

"Yes it is."

The Passengers

 "Are you guys all buckled up back there?"

"Yes, Bob's Mom."

"How about you, Bob?"

"I'm good to go, Mom... People? Please keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times."

Bob at the Vegan Restaurant: A Review

photo

"Mom! This is horrible! It's too spicy! This doesn't look like cheese. Is this supposed to be cheese? It's like a pretend. Who would eat here? This seems like a grown up restaurant... Yes, I see the other kids here but I don't know why they are eating this. It's super terrible and yes I tried it! I tried it with my whole mouth! These aren't really mashed potatoes. Where is the salt? Dad? How am I supposed to eat this without salt?!"

"Dad? For pre-k graduation we're going to do a Hawaiian dance with real Hawaiian outfits and Miss Nancy made us special hats and there are gonna be snacks for everybody. Then I will be ready for kindergarten, like a man."

Rise and Shine

"Hey, Mom! Your neck is super wrinkly."

"So, Bob? How about tomorrow we just start with, 'Good Morning?'"

"Yeah, okay."

Whadda You Looking At?

Like you've never seen a "car fort" before?

"Mom, I think my head is too sweaty for doing face-mask fencing. Wanna feel?"

Super Bob

"Mom, I wish I could be a superhero some of the time."

"What would your super powers be?"

"I would find bad guys like robbers and sit on their heads and it would make them in jail."

"Good one."

"And, you know, flying around and stuff."
