My Kids Have Issues

Exhibit A:
Tayton just told me his teacher taught him how to make applesauce. Tayton said "You just need apples, cinnamon and sugar. We have to cut the center out of apple and then you peel it and throw them into the crackpot. We have one of those right mom?"

I was trying to stop laughing and was not successful so he said "don't we have a crackpot mom?"

I'm pretty sure I'm not a crackpot mom.

Exhibit B:
Korbin is reading a cookbook and wanted to write our names in it. I pointed to our wooden sign by the door that says each of our names. He was very upset that his name was last. I tried to explain that it was because he was born last. That wasn't good enough for him. In his mind we clearly favored Tayton more because he got to be born first. Then he said "Was Tayton on top of me when I was a baby?" I'm not sure if he meant in the womb or what but I just shook my head in no particular direction so that I didn't mistakenly justify something to him.

Exhibit C:
A couple days ago the boys were fighting about showing their butts.....seriously....so I called them both downstairs and made them stand by the door. I asked them "what were you thinking when you did that?" and Korbin's response was "ummm my brain was sleepin".

Exhibit D:
I told the boys it's time to go to bed. They had brought down their blankets and sheets to be washed. I asked them to grab a blanket to use for the night while their other ones were being washed. Korbin says to me "no thanks, I'll just use a towel". GRRRR Who does that?

I might lose my mind soon. Very very soon!
