I made mommy and daddy crack up with my bipolar moment.

We were sitting in my room and daddy asked if I wanted to take my sticker book and go get pizza for dinner. I yelled “yes” and ran like a crazy man for the garage door (screaming yea along the way and jumping up and down.)

We get to the restauant and order and I say “I don’t like pizza! I want pasta!”

Woe are my ‘rents. 🙂

“Mommy, I think the pizza had too much sugar and gave me the tummy ache. The brownie was just right but the pizza you made me eat first put too much sugar in my tummy.”

I’m being very literal today. We were at the Dunedin rec center playground and playing train. Daddy said he didn’t have a ticket. Mommy said “kick him off the train.”. I did. Literally. So I got a lesson in figures of speech and expressions.

Then daddy was drinking some water and spilled it on himself. Mommy said “daddy has a hole in his chin.”. I stared and stared and twisted all around to find the hole in daddy’s chin.

Mom and dad couldn’t stop laughing. Oh well. Eventually I’ll catch onto some of these things

So, the whole trip home from Ohio I’ve been a trooper in the car. Until the past few hours. Now that we’re just minutes from home and E and I have been crying off and on over, well, silly things, I came up with a great idea.

I look at Emmerson and say: “Let’s BOTH cry!”

Judging by Mommy’s reaction I can really drive her crazy. I have to remember that phrase!

So last night Daddy let me watch the movie Twister (over Mommy’s objections since she said it would cause nightmares).

We had a great time watching the movie. When it got boring for me I had Daddy read me a book about Dinosaurs.

I loved seeing the tornadoes and we talked about safety and I had a blast.

I went to bed and woke up around 2 am confused thinking that I was in the bathroom hiding from a tornado. Since I was confused about where I was I had an accident (as in Mommy had to get up and strip the bed).

This morning I woke up happy and refreshed and told Mommy and Daddy I wanted to watch the movie again (and Daddy did watch it with me until I got bored and wanted to do other stuff). Daddy then showed me pictures of tornadoes on my computer. They really look neat.

I decided that after school Daddy and I are building “a huge satellite (filled) with chocolate milk and it will go pfewwww and the tornado will be gone in one minute”

I claim dibs on a patent for a chocolate milk spewing tornado defeating satellite.
