Brennan: "Griffin has lots of teeth Momma. He has teeth on top and on the bottom."
Me: "I know. Isn't he so cute with his teeth?"
Aidan: "Hmmm, I think he looks like a beaver."

Aidan gets off the bus today with a bright red ribbon pinned to his shirt. After I hug him hello, I read his ribbon which declares his opposition to "doing drugs."
"Wow, Aidan, great ribbon. Did you get that in school today?"
Aidan: "Mom, did you know that I don't have to do drugs?"
As I try to stifle outright and totally inappropriate laughter, I clear my throat and respond: "Good to know, Aidan. That's very important to remember."
Aidan nods his head yes, looks at me seriously and asks: "Mom, what are drugs?"
I respond with a full belly laugh. (I am so bad at this after school special parental stuff.)

And then later tonight, Chris and I wrangled the boys into their pjs for bed. Aidan looks at me and asks: "Mom, do you know what personal space is?"
My response? More hysterical laughter. Yes, I must work on my motherly demeanor.
