I get pretty excited about my birthday! It is in 11 days, by the way. Ya betta mark your calendars * Feb 8 * the bestest day evah! Isn't February wonderful!!
Oh, wait, sorry I got side tracked...
Spencer and I were headed to the bank and he mused that he hoped it wasn't a bank holiday. The last time I tried to actually go to the bank, it was closed.
I said, "No, it shouldn't be, MLK was last Monday and my birthday isn't for another 2 weeks."
"Your birthday isn't a bank holiday! Who do you think you are?!"
"Queen of Everything." Now you know where Caitlyn gets it from.
Fast forward to this morning...
We are in the car headed to school and the kids start asking how old I was when Caitlyn was born (29, in case you wanted to know.) What year they were all born, and lots of other year and age related questions. They finally asked what year I was born. 1976, I answered.
Ben "So, you were born right after WWII."
Matt "Were you on the Titanic?"
Yep, Matt I am the sole-survivor of the Titanic. (said dripping with sarcasm)
Ben- Mom, there were actually 706 survivors.
I am not so excited for my birthday anymore.

Oh man, I sure needed that laugh. I especially love that Ben corrected you on how many survivors there actually were from the Titanic. Oh that's just funny!
Kids say some crazy things! Your children, however, crack me up! Sorry, I know it probably wasn't as funny to you but come on...when Ben chimed in at the end with the actual statistic?! Priceless!
That'll knock you down a peg.
THAT is absolutely
HILARIOUS!
:)
LOL!!! I love your kids! Like Erin, I love how Ben corrected you. This reminds me of my friends status yesterday, "Caleb asked me yesterday, "mom, did they have peanut butter back then when you were a kid?" It was the "back then" that got me. My kids think I'm old."
You gotta still love birthdays, no matter how old you get!!
