Cooking With Love

The Mother of the Gremlin was making breakfast the other day when she came into the kitchen to see the Gremlin, chair up to the stove, waving his hand over the pancakes. The action was confusing for her, until she realized he looked like he was trying to get a spice out of a shaker.

"What are you doing buddy?" The Gremlin looked up at the MOTG, surprised.

"Momma, I'm adding love to daddy's pancakes!"

"What about mine over there?" The Gremlin looked over his shoulder.

"Nope, those are good."

Who Built Those Legos?

The Gremlin was playing Legos the other day and I noticed something.

"Why does that Police man have a peg leg and two hooks for hands? That doesn't seem like it would be useful in a Police situation."

"Because that's how God made him. God ran out of Lego hands and had to give him hooks."

"Hey, buddy, did you have fun with Kristen?"

"Yeah, but she's not going to be a very good Mommy."

"Why do you say that?"

"I only cried a little and she gave me EVERYTHING!"

I'm Curious To Know Where He Picked This One Up.....

We were revisiting Psych Season 1 the other day, and the Mother of the Gremlin and I thought the Gremlin was just playing Legos on the ottoman, unfortunately he was paying attention - as usual - and piped up with a question.

"How come the police are in that guy's apartment?" The MOTG and I shared a glance as I picked my words very carefully - attempting to shield the Gremlin from some of the more gruesome facts of life.

"Someone got very ouchy, and the police are trying to figure out who did it. They're helpers, like firemen." The Gremlin, however, caught us both off guard.

"How about the dead guy on the couch? Maybe he made the man really ouchy."

"Ummmmmmm, he's the man who got really ouchy."

"Oh, what about that alive guy walking over him?"
