Brotherly Love

M (bounding down the stairs): "Mom!! J was just really nice to me!!!"
Mom: "Oh, yeah?"
M: "Yeah! He let me use his toothbrush since I couldn't find mine! Wasn't that nice?!?"
Mom: (trying not to laugh)
J (acting all big brother-ish): "Yeah, I did. But just cause we couldn't fine his."

(They both notice me trying not to laugh, decide I'm the crazy one, and walk away)

M (walking away, talking to J): "Well, it was nice of you, you know."
J: "Yeah, I know."

A Couple of M-isms

M came up to me on Tuesday with a huge smile.

M: "Mommy, I've been saving something for you!"
Me: "Oh, yeah? What's that?"
M (digging in his pocket): "It's really special!"

He then presented me with a wad of white dog fur. Gotta love him.

As he was walking through the living room yesterday:

Me: "Hey, M, got any hugs?"
M (with a smile): "Yep!"
[starts coming to me]
M (changes from a smile to an untrusting grin): "But you certainly better not ask if I've got any kisses!"
