What's Playing

On your MP3 Player? Right now I'm enjoying Institutionalized by Suicidal Tendencies. Cool, huh? I love it. I only know it because it's in the movie Ironman. Which is pretty good, actually. Though not terribly kid friendly.

The Ant and the Grasshopper

A moral for you here.

Yet Another...

Communism is like prohibition, it's a good idea but it won't work.

Cake, Singing and Ironman

We've been planning for Wyatt's birthday for a while. I've questioned Wyatt here and there about what he wants because he's finally at an age where he understands the whole ordeal. Here's a couple of snippets of conversations we've had:

Me: Wyatt, What would you like to eat for your birthday?

Wyatt: (With eyebrows raised) I like cake.

[Gee, Mom, are you crazy? Are you considering NOT making me cake for my birthday? I mean what would I eat on my birthday???]

Me: Wyatt, what would you like to do for your birthday?

Wyatt: Well, you COULD sing to me.

[Once again, Mom, you're really not getting this birthday thing. It's quite easy really: cake with candles, sing to me, I blow out candles, we eat cake, I open presents, which are to be an Ironman costume and a remote control monster truck. Got it? Simple.]

Isaac's New Ability

To open the refrigerator.

Now I'm off to buy some baby gates for the kitchen. Hope your morning is just as sweet!
