harper and calvary have become masters of insinuation. instead of simply stating what they truly mean, they give an odd little factoid that leaves no room to wonder what is the motivation. for instance, not too long ago, calvary found my dad preparing himself something in the kitchen one morning when he spent the night. it woud not be too crazy for calvary to ask nicely for something for breakfast as well, but i suppose, not wanting to be rude, calvary stated "sleeping sure does make me hungry."
calvary and i had a fun day today and i guess harper is beginning to notice that we do a little more while she is gone than sit around missing her. so today, on our way back from the grocery, harper said, "mommy, i don't really need to go to school. you know why? because i have school in my brain." ahhhh...so i see.
a little later tonight, after our children were supposed to be in bed, calvary came wandering in to the living room trying to find some reason to justify his nomadic quest. thinking quick, he looked at me (while i am eating a bag of sour patch kids) and said with the most pathetic look on his face, "i'm hungry." and as if i didn't get the insinuation, he adds, "and i love sour stuff."
