Just had to share this little experience I had with Mase today at the grocery store. Christmas Eve at the grocery store is no fun. So maybe I threatened him a little that Santa would not come if he did not behave...
He looked at me with big eyes and said, "Santa brings gifts to everyone, the rich AND the poor."
I contemplated this for a moment and said, "And what are we, Mason?"
He said, "Hmmm.... well, we are happy... so we are rich!"
The hug I gave him was maybe a little too long for the busy grocery store but I felt so proud of the wisdom he already has in his short four and a half years.
Merry Christmas!

Funny comments from the kids

We had just finished breakfast at a new place and Ro was talking about the cheap price for his steak and eggs. He said it was ridiculous.
Mase (from the backseat): How ridiculous was it? Just TELL us fatty!
2-26-09
Mase: When I grow up, I want to be TALLER than Shaq... And gray like him, too!
12-23-08
Ava: On Christmas, I'm going to get candy, and I will share it with ALL my sisters!
Me: Uh, just how many sisters do you have?
Ava: FOUR!
Me: Oh really... what are their names?
Ava: (with no hesitation) Peach, Princess, Pizza Dragon, and Reindeer!

Mase: Look, I'm drinking GAY milk!
Me: What?
Mase: It's GAY milk!
Me: (Wondering who had made a joke about homogenized milk to my four-year-old and what kind of conversation was about to go down...) What do you mean?
Mase: I mixed GAY-torade and milk to make GAY-MILK!
11-02-08
Mase was practicing his addition skills out loud and then asked me, "Mom, what's 2 +2?"
Me: Four
Mase: Great job! I gave you some low numbers so you would be able to get it right...

I had just returned from work and the kids were just getting out of the bath...
Me: Mase, you smell clean and nice.
Mase: You know what you smell like? OLD PEOPLE!
10-27-08
Mase: Mom, when you look sideways you can kinda stretch out your eyes... that's call per-if-EYE-al vision.
10-24-08
We were watching a family movie where a man and woman were talking to each other... it was in no way a romantic situation.
Ava: They gonna KISS right now... WATCH!
9-25-08
The kids were in the bath and Mason turned off the water with just a few inches...
Mase: Ava, look how much water I'm saving for our CONTINENT!
9-22-08
I was looking at Halloween costumes online with Mase and we found the PERFECT one, only it was very expensive.
Me: I love this costume, but we have to ask Daddy because it costs a lot of money.
Mase: But mom, I really want it! Please!!!!
Me: I don't know...
Mase: (Leaves for a minute and comes back from his room with six grimy quarters.) We can buy it with MY money!

Ava, from her bed this morning:
Hello PEOPLE... HOLA!
8-5-08
Mase: I can't WAIT until Ava gets old enough to have babies in her tummy!
Me: That will be fun (I think)... and maybe someday your wife can have babies in her tummy and you can be a Daddy.
Mase: (Looks at me for awhile and then, fighting tears...) But I'm going to marry AVA. When we are both grown-ups, right? I don't want a different wife.

Ava, rocking her Polly Pocket in her arms and singing:
Rockabye, and goodnight... go to sweep witto pow-wy...

Taking a bite of his dinner, Mase says:
I sure LOVE salmon!
Me: Yeah, I like fish, too.
Mase: WHAT???? Salmon isn't FISH!
Me: Yes, it is buddy.
Mase: WHY did you cut him up?! Next time you need to leave him in the ocean instead of putting him in the OVEN!
(We may have a future vegan on our hands...)

Ava's First Prayer:
Bless Mason, and Honey Bear, and Mason, and Ava... oh and Mason, too!

Ava (counting earrings): 1, 2, 3, 4... 7, 8, 9...
Me: (trying to demonstrate correct counting because she always skips 5 and 6): 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
Ava: Oh! Good counting, Mommy! (while clapping)
Me: Thanks!
Aves: You welcome! (At least we are teaching her to be polite...)
4-24-08
Mase: Mom, do you know what "created" means?
Me: Yes, do you?
Mase: It means to put sand all over something, like Sandman does.
Me: Oh... who created you?
Mase: Jesus.
Me: Did he put sand all over you?
Mase: No, he put SKIN all over me!
4-22-08
Mase and Ava were both sitting on Ro's lap and Ava wanted Daddy all to herself.
Ava: (with an angry look in her eyes) Mase, you go TIME OUT!!
4-21-08
Me: Mase, what'd you learn about at school today?
Mase: Animals... like bulls.
Me: Once, when I was little, I got cornered by a bull when I was in a pen with some cows. I was scared, but Grandpa rescued me...
Mase: (very wide-eyed) Was Grandpa on a VINE? (Like Diego when he rescues animals)
4-17-08
We were sitting in the movies with the kids and the lights starting dimming.
Mase looked up and said: Jesus, are you there?
Ro: Are you praying, Mase?
Mase: Well, this might be a scary movie and Jesus saves people, right?
4-15-08
Mase: Mom, why does Lisa always wear her glasses? (Lisa is Jon's cute new wife.)
Me: I don't know... don't you like her glasses?
Mase: (with a dreamy look on his face) No... I like her EYES.

Me: Mase, I love you so much! You are the best person I know.
Mase: (in power rangers outfit with serious expression) I know. I save people.
