Funnies

Snapshot of life with Owen and Asher:

[On the way home from grocery store, getting home late, talking through supper in the car to pave the way for a quick meal.]
Me:  OK, who wants white milk and who wants chocolate milk tonight?
Asher:  Choc-wat!
Owen:  Does chocolate milk make your teeth fall out?
Me:  Well...um...yes, I guess if you drank a lot of chocolate milk and didn't brush, your teeth might eventually fall out.
Owen:  No, that's not what I mean.  Oh mom, I just want white milk.
Me:  OK.  So your favorite is white milk these days even when I give you a choice?
Owen:  Well, I just want to drink lots and lots of white milk so my teeth will fall out.  If I drink lots and lots of white milk it will make my baby teeth fall out faster and my grown up teeth grow in.
Me:  OH!  Now I see what you mean.  It sounds like a good plan.  Maybe they'll fall out faster if you stick with healthy white milk, you never know.  Why do you want your teeth to fall out faster?
Owen:  I just do!  Sabrina's baby teeth fell out already and I just want to be like her.
Asher:  Watch out for the vomits, mom!
Me:  Vomits?  What???
Asher:  NO!  BOMB-its.
Me:  What's a bomb-it, Ash?
Asher:  You know mom, BOMB-ITS! [makes explosion noise] [giggles uproariously]

Owen=man with a plan
Asher=hilariously random

Not to put them in boxes, but when the box fits...
