From Their Point of View

Nathan made a Father's Day ribbon for Brian to wear that says, "Best Dad 1st Place".

We're wondering who the second place Dad is...?

------------------------

My neighbor's daughter threw her mom a surprise birthday party the other night. Afterwards, Matthew asked if he could have a surprise party for his next birthday. He was disappointed when I pointed out that it wouldn't be much of a surprise if he planned it.

But I promised to throw him a surprise birthday party someday in his life.

------------------------

This morning I told Maggie we needed to clean up her toys all over the family room.

She asked, "So pigs don't die?"

At first I was confused and then I realized "pig sty" sounds like "pigs die". I explained. And then we cleaned up and saved the pigs.

I only wish Great Grandma Wilson (Camper) could read this quote about the "pigs die". That is where I got the word pigsty, and you Elly got them from me. Now they have been memorably enhanced forever.
