Tonight during bath time Dempsey was pushing all the toys toward Sawyer.

Sawyer said "Dempsey's giving me all the toys I ever wanted. That
means he's my REAL brother."

Go figure. :-)

Spoiled!

When picking the boys up from Granny and Granddad's this morning
Sawyer was drinking a chicolate shake. I told hime "You're spoiled!"
Granny told him "That just mean you are treated well." Sawyer goes,
"But not as well at my home."

Slays me.

Sawyer's Fan Club (WCSP Chapter)

The following is an exact copy of what my friend Ellen posted on my Facebook wall about Sawyer.  It makes me so proud and validates our obedience to God to home school our Monster.  He makes us so happy.

So... this morning in my 6th grade class, one of my girl students says... "Does anyone know that little kindergarten boy named Sawyer?" and before I could answer, the whole class was buzzing about how cute he was, how smart he was, how he was in one of their little sister's preschool class, and that he has such a cute little redheaded brother. So now you know how the Sawyer Fanclub (WCSP-chapter) began...

I could just read this over and over all day!

Joints

Sawyer swung the TV remote around to show me what he was doing when he
heard a "xxshxxss" sound.

He asked "what do you think that was?

I told him "It was probably your joints. Sometimes when we move a
certain way they make a cracking sound."

He went on "Oh, like when Granddad stretches out his toes."

His association abilities are both comical and spot on.

Such A Man!

I told Sawyer to stop playing with his junk.
We made him go get shorts.
He said "The penis started it."
Such a man!

I love it!

First Swear Word

A text from my mom:

After we got home from taking Granddad to work. We were watching Curious George and I told Sawyer that we would be doing some reading today. He said,"Oh damn" I asked...what did you say? And he repeated that statement. I asked him what damn meant and he said it was another way of saying,"oh man". I asked him if he knew what damn meant.  He said. No.  I told him it was not appropriate to use that word. I also asked where he had heard that used and he said he didn't know.

My response:

He picked it up from Big Bang. I haven't heard him say it but Jake told me he and Sawyer talked about it recently. Maybe it shouldn't but it makes me giggle. His first bad word. We'll all just have to keep reminding him it's not something we want to say and "oh man"'is what we should stick with.

Drama? Oh Yeah!

I told Sawyer "Why are you being so dramatic?"
He goes, "My name is not Dramatic therefore I'm not being dramatic."

Cat Buffet

I asked Sawyer to feed the cats. Kamatz came in when he heard the
sounds of food. Sawyer said "It was nice of me to throw out a cat
buffet."

Why Thank You, Nose

Sawyer said

I remember now! My nose told me. My sense of smell reminded me. 

When I warmed up tamales. :-)

Recognizing Jesus

Sawyer asked why is Jesus in disguise (as a mortal being)?

I said because he needed to look like us. 

He asked, why?

And I said because if he was God we couldn't see him, we wouldn't know it was him.

Sawyer says "maybe we should read the Bible, in a few pages we could see what he looks like."

So brilliant!

Water Talk, BBT Twist

"Hey that put me back into the clean water amplification."

This is what Sawyer tells us while we were out for our evening walk as
a family. We had started out talking about the water crisis and how
important clean water is. We moved on to all the ways Sawyer could
think of that we use clean water. We got on a tangent. We mentioned a
sink and washing dishes and thant's when he stated the sentiment
above.

The "amplification" part is clearly a BBT (Big Bang Theory) reference/
influence. :-) Love it!
