Things that my little guy said today

Because he was in rare form:

“Mama, you are my sweet boy!”

.

.

(As I am huffing it down the subway stairs carrying Isaac and the stroller and trying to figure out which way to go, Joseph spots a small blue poster down the hallway) “Mama!  Look your favorite color!  Loook!  Loooooooooook Mama!  IT’S YOUR FAVOORITE!  AHHHHHH!  YOUR FAVORITE!”

.

.

As we were going down the cathedral stairs a man told Joseph “Way to go Batman”  Joseph asked me: “Why did he call me Batman?”  Me: “Because you are wearing your Batman shirt”  Joseph (yelling up the stairs as loud as he can) “THANK YOU!! THAT MAKES ME HAPPY!”

.

.

This week I have been teaching him to hold doors for me (with a stroller it is just plain helpful) and today when he held it for someone else as well he said, “That’s because I am being a gentleman.  Batman is AAAAALWAYS a gentleman.”

.

.

As Brian started walking ahead of me to catch up with Isaac:  “Dada!  Wait for Mama!  She is MARRIED to you!”

.

.

When we finally all got caught up and were walking together: “Look Mama!  1,2,3,4!  Four friends!”

.

.

Wrestling tonight with Brian:  “Wrestle gentle with me, Dada.  But HARD with Isaac!”

.

.

As we were walking through the hotel lobby he stopped, put his hands on his hips, and said loudly, “Mama?  Why do girls always stand like this?”
