Carrie starts frying an egg

Aldwyn who declined an egg 5 mins ago: I want an egg... I want that egg... the egg you were about to eat.

Parenting is explaining to your five year old (Aldwyn), at 7 am, just why he shouldn't hide tomatoes under the bed. 

[

Raedan: You said we could go to Dollar Tree so we could buy sparkling lemonade. When I asked you, you said something and it was a word related to yes. It was yes, but it was not the word yes. So let's go!

[

Raedan, playing Super Mario Cart: Cheer for me. Cheer for all my body parts!

Funnies

 Asmund: Aldwyn, do you want to know something? 

Aldwyn: What?

Asmund: You're funny.

Aldwyn: No I'm not! I don't have a funny bone in my skin.

Me: Has anyone seen the eggs?

Asmund: Have you tried the egg carton?

/

Eldric to Aldwyn: do you remember when I scared you last night? It was so 'atastic (fantastic) for me!

Body

 Aldwyn:  I want to kill my body.

Eldric: I do not want to kill my body.

Aldwyn: Well then, I don't to listen to my body. 

Asmund: but what if but what if you need to go to the bathroom? Or you're hungry?

Eldric: I am ever hungry, but I am not hungry now.

Asmund: Well, if you don't have a body then what's the point of having dessert know you'll have no cake or ice cream or my delicious brownies

Eldric: ahh!

Aldwyn: okay, I won't kill my body. Wait, did my body say that?

Eldric: Yes!

Aldwyn: Dumb body! 

Notes from bedtime tonight

Eldric: I really really can't sleep. I only go to sleep on Christmas.

Eldric: I ate crackers but crackers don't last forever. That's why I only want to eat soft stuff. Ice cream is soft. Cake is soft too!

Eldric: Do you know what I see when I close my eyes?

Me: What do you see?

Eldric: I see nothing!

Raedan: When you were four you _weren't_ related to me.

Asmund: How old is dad? 50/50?

Nightmares

 Eldric,  "Mommy, I have nightmares that you and Aldwyn are running from a monster."  "Oh no, that sounds scary! Do you want to cuddle up with Aldwyn? Would that help you feel safe?"  "Yes! Maybe that will 'ahvince my body to have good dreams!" -Aldwyn and Eldric fall asleep in each other's arms.

Aldwyn: I'm allergic to gluten free!

Eldric: Do you know what I am getting for Christmas? It's a secret!
