Apricots

This morning as the kids were eating breakfast, Conor piped up with the following gem...

"I know what an apricot is. It is a little fruit that looks like a bottom."

Spot-on description if you as me! Such an insightful (and highly funny) boy his is! :)

Minty!

Yesterday as we drove home from school I asked the kids about the volleyball game between the teacher and 8th graders. This was the report from the kids in the back seat:

Conor: It was the ultimint epic volleyball game!

Me: Umm? Conor? Can you please say that word again?

Conor: Epic!

Me: No, the word that starts with the letter U ... ulti....

Conor: Ultimint

Me: Buddy, it is pronounced ultimate

Annika: Ultimate? That just sounds weird. I always thought it was ultimint.

Conor: Yeah. Ultimint sounds better.

Me: (can't talk.due to shaking with laughter)
