Sometimes he said CRAZY things!

As you may have read in the previous post, Parker says some stuff at times that makes me giggle. Well, other times it makes me flat out LAUGH! For example, one day Dino, the boys and I were in Payless looking for school shoes. Parker comes up to me and loudly says, referring to a heavy set woman who carried her weight on her backside, "Mom, LOOK! That lady has a baby in her butt! Come here, look! You gotta see this!!" I was so embarrassed I quickly grabbed our shoes and headed for the cashier.




Well, then the other day, I was doing some laundry and Parker walks up to me and says, "Look, I'm the Hook 'cause I have a Hooker!" Seriously, what mom wanted to hear that? Even if it is coming from a very cute 3 year old. Of course I laughed and grabbed my camera phone to capture the moment.

Well, this past weekend was our stakes Woman's conference, and I was able to attend since Dave had those days off. Well Dave had signed up to help with clean up the first night which meant he had to take the boys with him. Luckily there was babysitting available in the nursery room if anyone needed it. So he took David and Parker there. When he picked them up he was told that Parker had been singing a song from Madagascar to one of the young ladies who was babysitting. Unfortunately the young lady was heavier set and the song verse he kept singing was, "I like 'em big, I like 'em chunky." He told Dave that they didn't like it. Hmmm, wonder why! Needless to say I'm SOO glad I wasn't there, I would have DIED from embarrassment!

I'm hoping all these moments are just a phase and at some point he will learn tact and that these comments could hurt someone's feelings. But who knows, other males in the family are yet to learn it. HAHAHA!!!

Sometimes he says sweet things.


Last week Parker and I were driving to pick up David and his friends from school when Parker said something I probably will never forget. Don't get me wrong, he has many of these moments, but this one will stick to my heart for a while.


Parker: Mommy, I saw Jesus.

Me: Oh, yeah? Where? (I looked around thinking maybe there was a billboard or something he was talking about)

Parker: When he made me.

Me; Oh, yeah?

Parker: Yeah, he made me. Then when he was done I went and sat down while he made you guys. I turned around and saw him.

Me: (with a lump in my throat and watery eyes.) You did? That's awesome Bubba!

Parker: Yeah mommy, me and Jesus are good friends.

Me: I'm glad Bubba. That makes me happy.


I kept driving replaying this conversation in my head so I wouldn't forget anything so I could tell Dave the next time I talked to him. As i kept driving I turned onto a street that had houses on one side but desert on the other and the following was said.


Parker: Wow, people live way out here?

Me: Yup.

Parker: Oh, Jesus made their house's?

Me: Um, no, not really. Construction workers made them.

Parker: OH! You mean the Laminates?! Laminates made them?!

Me: Um, no. Construction workers. (giggling a bit by now)

Parker: Mom, Jesus likes laminates too.

Me: Yes honey, he does. That's right.
