Walker has provided us, the family, and Mrs. Lala, the teacher (have I told you how much we LOVE Mrs. Lala?) with several smiles lately. He is so clever.
Last week he was having a difficult time paying attention in class, daydreaming and such. One particular day he had to pull a color for daydreaming a little too much, but had pulled it together by the end of the day, so Mrs. Lala dismissed the color change and proceeded to put a happy face stamp in his daily behavior log. She saw him really studying his chart and asked him what he was doing. Here is the conversation:
Mrs. L : "Walker, what are you looking at?"
Walker: "Oh, I'm just checking out my options."
What? Options? Where did you learn that word? And what ARE your options pray-tell?
Mrs. Lala got a good laugh out of this conversation, too:
After watching Walker for several minutes, Mrs Lala decided he must have something on his mind as it appeared he was pondering something.
Mrs. L: "Walker, what are you thinking about?"
Walker: "Well Mrs. Lala, I think I figured out why I wasn't paying attention the other day."
Mrs. L: "Really, Walker? Tell me what it was."
Walker: "My dad forgot to give me my vitamin. I need my vitamin to pay attention."
Oh if only a vitamin would solve all my problems so easily!!!
And tonight, I had a great laugh courtesy of Mr. One-Liner himself!
Walker: "Mom, can I have the last piece of cake now? I ate all my supper."
Me: "Let me see how big it is.....Okay, but don't eat it all. Save some for me, alright?"
WAlker: "You got it Mom."
10 minutes later he comes into the room I'm in carrying the EMPTY container, but before I even realize he's there or that he's eaten all of the cake, he walks up to me and says.....
"Sorry Mom, I didn't hear what you said." Hee, hee! Big cheesy smile!
I busted out laughing....what else could I do?
And to boot, about 15 minutes after that......
Walker: "Mom. Knock Knock."
Me: "Who's there?"
Walker: "Sorry Mom, I didn't hear what you said."
Hardy Har Har!!!!
