Are You Freaking Kidding Me???

So, a good friend of mine was staying at another friend's house and found this little wonder of nature. After the screaming ended she decided that my boys would like to see it. So she jars it up and brings it over....now I have this thing living in a jar INSIDE MY HOUSE.....it is called a Jeruselum Cricket or a Potato Bug or my personal favorite and as far as I am concerned more appropriate....SATANS FETUS!!!!! Not only is it the freakiest bug I have see so far but these objects on your screen are NOT larger then they really appear. Look at your pinky finger...the distance between the tip of that finger and your knuckle is about the size of it. If you have abnomally small fingers then double it....seriously, it is THAT big.....Thanks Friend!!!!

A couple of gems.....

While eating breakfast one morning and reading A Thousand Splendid Suns......

Carsen: Mom, why don't you read that outloud to me?
Me: It's not a book for kids.
C: Well, Griffen is a kid.
Me: And I don't read it out loud to him either.
C: Dad's a teenager.
Me: Oh really, so what am I?
C: You are just a mom. (said with a look of "your kidding me right?")

The other happened while camping for a week with a couple other family friends.
We had 3 families all with kids but one has a daughter who is 14 and very cute.
So the boys are down at the playground at the campground and here is the conversation that has been relayed back to me.

Carsen: Mary is HOT!
This is where the conversation ended because Griffen put Carsen in a head lock and dragged him back up to the camp to apologize to Mary for making an inappropriate comment about her. It was a little hard to explain to my 5 year old and my 10 year old that it was not exactly a bad comment....etc...all of this while trying to keep from laughing too hard.
