Doug and I were talking about how Christopher is such a ladies man. I mentioned how he asked one girl to marry him last year and he told a girl in his current class that he loves her. "Yeah," Doug said, "a real Don Juan." "And Aaron," he added, "is Don Knotts."

Shannon's unique comments

Today Shannon asked me (Leslie) why this boy was bugging her today (saying she liked another boy, etc.).  I told her that boys bother girls sometimes when they like them and want to get a reaction out of them.  Her response, "Mom, there are some times when parents just don't understand kids." 

 

At the dinner table we were discussing how bad lying is.  Doug said that lying deserves the worst punishments we have given since it is so bad. 

Shannon: "You know what the worst punishment is?  To be mind-controlled and told to jump off the Empire State Building." 

Ummmm.....yeah.
