When playing during the day he would talk in an English accent and repeat what the TV show hosts would say, "Hold on!" and "Oh My!"<br /><br />He used to come into our room in the early mornings to watch TV as we tried to sleep. He had a kid sized chair in there and would lean back and put his feet on the cheap, short TV cabinet we have. He would always press his feet against the shelves which would thump as they fell back into place. He'd then open and shut and open and shut and open and shut the cabinet doors. That would drive me nuts.<br /><br />Boy #1 is 11.5-years-old now and he still fusses with things when reading or watching TV. When in his room reading he'll be thumping on the wall. Yesterday we watched a movie and he got excited, stood by the large TV cabinet in the family room, and was opening and shutting that door. "Quentin, stop that! It's annoying."Gerard Saylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00289822422163685990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33110302.post-41156134458203842662014-07-09T18:09:22.240-04:002014-07-09T18:09:22.240-04:00You mean your water doesn't come pre-soaped?You mean your water doesn't come pre-soaped?<br />pattinase (abbott)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02916037185235335846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33110302.post-70165845532735512952014-07-09T17:55:50.772-04:002014-07-09T17:55:50.772-04:00Last year we were on our annual trip to KS.

We were questioning him in the car.<br /><br />Us: "Ian, are you sure you're washing your feet when you shower?"<br />Ian: "Yes, I'm washing them." He says in an aggravated voice as we are interrupting his game or book.<br />Us: Well, let's be clear. Are you soaping the wash cloth well and then scrubbing your feet?<br />Ian: Soap? I don't use soap.<br />Us: You don't use soap?<br />Ian: No.<br />Us: Do you use soap at all when you shower?<br />Ian: No. Why do I need to use soap?Gerardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33110302.post-26286341598191314032014-07-09T14:36:41.646-04:002014-07-09T14:36:41.646-04:00Not unlike my own son.

Kevin has terrific taste - my nephew, who is about to turn 14, also loved Calvin & Hobbes - and it's great that he has his own likes and dislikes rather than relying on what other people like.<br /><br />Jeff M.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33110302.post-17948301751170194872014-07-09T07:48:42.427-04:002014-07-09T07:48:42.427-04:00What a wonderful post, Patti!
