"Daddy I want to marry mommy..." which was a surprise to me because he has also told me he hates me. :o( But I guess all kids tell their mommies that...??

Tonight we saw a taxi that had spinner hub caps and Chris commented how that wasn't a good idea & I said, "It caught your attention right? It's a good idea...it made you look at the car..." On our way home we went by the same area we had seen the cab & Benjamin says, "You remember that car that had the tires that were moving, but the car wasn't?" We were like, "Yeah..." Ben said, "It was magic!!" LOL So cute!
I found out a way to get Benjamin to do chores...Sunday afternoon Benjamin said he was Handy Manny & to call him when I needed help. Well he decides to call me from his "shop" (the couch) & he says,
"Hi this is Handy Manny do you need any help today?"
Me,
"Well there are some cups that need to be picked up off the floor & put on the counter..."
Ben,
"Ok I will be right over!!"
**knock on the computer chair**
"Hi Handy Manny...right over there & there & there..."
**pointing out the cups**
"Thanks for your help!"
"No problem!"
**Ben goes back to his "shop" (the couch).**
He calls me again,
"Hi this is Handy Manny do you need any help today?"
"hmmm there are some clothes on the floor that need to be put in the laundry basket..."
"Ok I will be right over!"
**knock on the computer chair**
"Hi ok there & there & there..."
"Thanks for you help!"
"No problem!"
**He heads back to his "shop"**
**Call comes in to momma**
"Hi this is Handy Manny...I have some clothes in my shop that need put away..."
Me, "LOL! Ok I will be right over..."
I go to his "shop" and get the folded laundry & put it away in his room LOL It made me laugh so much because there I was getting him to do chores & he caught on QUICK. He got me to do chores too haha! So now anytime we want him to do something all we have to call him is Handy Manny & he turns into the nice & friendly Handy Manny LOL. YAY! ;o) THANKS HANDY MANNY!! ;o)
