Give Me Some Skin

On Super Tuesday, the kids and I watched the boys. We met Amy and the boys at McDonalds for a "healthy dinner" before she was off to stand for her candidate. (to be inspired, read this)

As we were sitting there eating dinner, Noelle, who was sitting by Jack, asked him to "give me some skin". Jack looked at her confused and looked like he was thinking, "why do you have your fist out at me?". (yes, my nephew is a deep thinker). Suddenly, Jack makes a fist and "gives her some skin". Riley, sitting by Michael, stops eating to look at what the other two are doing. He makes a fist and gives Michael "some skin".

I started to think, my nephews are quick learners!!!! I can't WAIT to start teaching them the things that Amy taught my kids:

  • Me: "Hey Jack & Riley..."
  • Jack & Riley: "What?"
  • Me: "Nothing."
  • Me: "Hey Jack & Riley..."
  • Jack & Riley: "What?"
  • Me: "Never mind."
  • Me: "Hey Jack & Riley..."
  • Jack & Riley: "What?"
  • Me: "What?"
  • Me: "Hey Jack & Riley, want to learn the song 'Beans, Beans, The Magical Fruit'?"

Aaaahhhh, paybacks.
