Some cute things Michael has said/done lately

This morning, he got up at 7 am, and of course it was dark. He came into the computer room and said, Why are we up so early? I told him it was 7, and time to get up. Then he looked out the window and saw the sun just starting to turn the sky pink. He said, Can you open my bedroom curtains? Sure...no problem. He said, That's so pretty, I've never seen a sunset like that before. I said, well, actually, that's a sunrise. "Oh, well, that's almost the same thing..." Then he got really excited because he saw his first sunrise!

He got a DS for his birthday from his Nonno and Nan. He's been playing his Ben 10 game that we gave him. There is a lot of jumping in it. He's been doing the classic new video game player move...moving his hands and arms instead of just pressing the buttons. He tries to get me to watch him playing the game, but, it makes me sick he moves so much. LOL Maybe he just too used to the Wii. We've also played Mario Kart w/ the three of us, so much fun!

Like I said, for his birthday he got his DS. After he opened all the presents, and he was just basking in the glow. I asked him, so, how was your birthday? His response, "Awesome, Awesome Awesome, Awesome Awesome, Awesome and AWESOME!!"

On Sunday I made a commen to him about being tall, he said, "Yeah, I'm six now I grew from yesterday."

In the car on the way home yesterday he told me a kid taught him all the swear words. So, I asked what words. He said, "Do I have to tell you?" I told him no, but it would be good for me to know so I can explain why it's not a good word for him to use. So he said, "Well, I learned the 'N' word." My heart dropped, he's learning THAT in grade 1?? My knees quaking, I asked him to tell me what that word was... his reply, "Nerdy" whew...crisis averted. blah blah blah, nerdy isn't a swear word, but it's not something nice to call someone. blah blah blah.

"So, what about the "P" word?" he asked. What 'P' word? after some hesitation, he tells me Pathetic. I explain again that it isnt' a swear word. lol We finally get done with the grueling five minute car ride home, and he says he doesn't want to say anymore bad words. LOL

He really is a gem. :)
