Just as Jackson was finishing up his lunch (finally), he decided to call me an idiot. He didn't want to take a bite of his pineapples like I suggested and he very quitely said, "You're an idiot." I took him in his room and asked him to tell me what he just said. And he said that he didn't remember a couple of times. Then he picked up a pencil from his dresser and said, "I said that this pencil is great." Anyway, he finally admited that he did indeed call me an idiot and he got a nice little spanking.
I would like to believe that he's never heard that word from either of his parents, but I'm not sure that's the case. Phillip and I do say that on occasion, but not in front of Jack (or so I thought).
Phillip and I both thought the pencil comment was particularly clever of him. I didn't laugh when he said it but Phillip and I both laughed about it afterward.
He can think that I'm an idiot all he wants, but he better not ever say it to my face again.

That pencil comment was spectacular — it impresses even me. Maybe he heard you talking about Donnie's comment on your last post?
/couldn't resist
That was a textbook "redirect." I smell an attorney in the making.
PS. Your son is obviously a smart little man.
Holy jeez.
One of these days, Donnie will quit deletng the posts he makes.
I keep hoping that if we ignore him, he'll go away.
;)
Yep, one of these days I will learn to use to preview button before I publish... I have a fear of the grammar/spelling cops out there.
Or the crossing-the-line-with-subject-matter cops.
It's ok Donnie. You can post all the retarded comments on my blog that you want to. :)
Thanks Jenny. I hope you all know that I am not really a stupid retarded idiot. I just like to see what kind of reaction I can get sometimes.... Sometimes I get more than I bargain for.
Time and place is the thing, Donnie, time and place.
A line there is, everywhere — learn when to cross it not, one must.
