Colton Does Father's Day

Bestest boys ever! 

Me: Wow, check out the mountain! (Rainier)
C: It almost looks like a volcano!
Me: It is a volcano.
C: I can't believe I just saw a volcano!

Me: Are you awake?  Do you want to come with me to get donuts?
C: I'm too tired... Oh wait, I wanna come!
Me: I'm going to go put on some coffee while you get dressed.
C: I need something too.  I'm too tired to get dressed.
Me: Okay, I'll make you some hot chocolate.

Me: That sneaky Dad is already awake and knows we're going to get donuts.
C: It doesn't matter because he doesn't know what kind we're gonna pick out.

Guy at Frost: Are you drinking coffee too?
C: No, it's hot chocolate!  (he just had to take it in with him)

Me: When I was a kid, we went camping on the boat.
C: WHAAaaaT?!

Sailing with Granddad!

Took Colton to see the Magic Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle on Friday ~
Me: What was your favorite cure?
C: The pirate cure!

Me: You have some serious stick-em-up hair today.
C: That's the way I want it!

Colton Tells the Truth

This looks like trouble...

C: Dad, my brain is staying hurting!

C: Do you like that I got that (dream catcher in my car) for you?
Me: Yes, I do.
C: And whenever you see it, you can just think of me!
Me: Good idea.
C: And if you don't have anything else to think of, then you must not be very happy.
Me: But if I look at the dream catcher, I'll be happy?
C: Yeah! We should put them in everyone's car!
Me: So everyone can think of you?
C: Yeah! Even the bad guys!
*sigh*

C: I want a car like that!
Me: Like what?
C: One with a tail!

C: My balloon popped! *sob*
Me: It's just a small hole, you can still play with it.
C: No, it popped! *sob*
Me: I can't find the hole, can you?
C: It's right here, where those slinders (slivers) are!

Nanan: What were you and your mom arguing about?
C: She said I was complaining when I was telling the TRUTH!
Me: You were telling the truth, but you were still complaining.
C: My mom never tells the truth!
Nanan: I think she does tell the truth.
C: My mom always tells the truth wrong and I always tell it right!

Me: How'd you get so big and strong?
C: I ate lots of carrots.
Me: But you said you didn't like carrots.
C: I almost do.

C: Mom? Why do you have to zoe? (sew)
