Today I opened my bedroom windows. I’m such a rebel.

I don’t really have much to blog about except that I cleaned my room and while I cleaned I opened up my windows, which have stickers on them that help our military housing people strictly enforce the no-unlocked-or-open-upstairs-windows-ever rule.  I’m like an unmanageable teenager, yall.

I can’t think of much else that’s happened so I’ll just tell you what Sam said.

At the museum last week, Sam, my 5 year old, picked out one of those dinosaur eggs things that you put in water and it hatches and then you have a little dinosaur.  He was so excited that his egg would hatch and he would finally have a pet dinosaur, which apparently is all he’s ever wanted.

He was telling me all about it and I asked him what he was going to name it.  He answered, I’m naming him Brick.  I asked, Brick? Not Fido, or Rover, or spot?  He said, No.  His name will be Brick.

Two days later I found his hatched dino sitting on the coffee table and I took it to him and we had the following conversation.

Me: Sam, you left Brick on the table. Pets are not allowed on the table.

Sam: That’s not Brick.

Me: Isn’t this your dinosaur?

Sam: Yes.

Me: You told me his name is Brick.

Sam: Yeah, I did, but he’s not Brick, he’s Rubber.

Then a couple days later Sam was calling him Brick and I asked, I thought you said he was rubber now.  Sam replied, as if I were missing something completely obvious, Yes, he’s rubber, but he is Brick.

The end.

P.S. Sam (5) and Jesse (3) stopped whining and became awesome the instant I said smile.
