Friday Funnies

A few weeks ago we had to put our cat down (this is not the funny bit). He was old (12 1/2 years) and his diabetes was not getting better. We discovered his diabetes b/c he was suffering from "inappropriate urination," but he was also struggling with stairs and grooming himself.

On Monday on the way to soccer practice, Chase & his friend Clay were talking about Clay's cat. I overheard the following story (Warning, don't drink anything while reading this!)

Chase: Our cat died. See he had diabetes which means you have to pee a lot. He started peeing in the house, which he's never done because we trained him not to do that.

Clay: When did you train him to do that?

Chase: Last summer. Anyway, he had so much pee inside him, it filled him up and his ball fell off and he died.

Clay: What's a ball?

Chase: You know, those things that hang down by your penis.

Clay: Oh. Ouch.

Chase: I know. So he died.

Stuart the theologian

Just a couple funny stories that people have told me about Stuart recently.

Michael caught Stuart carrying some water into his room and then bringing it back out.

Micahel: What are you doing?
Stu: Oh, I was just baptizing Obi-Won Kenobi.


London recounted this about Stuart & Aidan's conversation on the way home:

Stuart: Oh, we played Star Wars at recess today. I was Yoga.
Aidan: Yo-DAH
Stuart: Yogda?
Aidan: Yo-DAH!
Stuart: Oh. Yea, and the other day I baptized Obi-Won Kenobi
Aidan: What's bapertized?
Stuart: It's when you go in the water and you get washed off of all your sins 'cause from then on you follow Jesus. (very matter of factly) But if you sin again, ya just pray.

Funny conversations

Stuart: How many times have I been to the moon?
Chase: Twice.
Stuart: No, how many times have I been to the moon?
Chase: Half the time.

Sabrina (to Stuart on his bike): Stuart! Come back here.
Sabrina (to me): I gotta stand up and call Stuart's name
Me: Why?
Sabrina: 'Cause he didn't follow my directions.

Oh a fork...

For those of you who know the game, "This is a fork. A what? A fork.", you'll see why I busted up laughing at my kids today.

At a birthday party this weekend, Stuart made a bird feeder out of peanut butter spread on a whole grain bagel smashed with birdseed. Today, I was finally to the point to help him find a place outside to hang it. When he came inside, he was so excited to tell Chase.

S: Chase! I hung up my bird doughnut!
C: What?
S: My bird bagel!
C: What?
S: My peanut butter bird bagel!
C: Oh, your bird doughnut.



Also just some cute picture of Ruth and Sabrina at the Zoo yesterday.
