Words of Wisdom

Brodie received some words of wisdom this past week.

He was jumping on the bed as I was folding clothes and Abel was putting clothes away in another room. I had just said, "no jumping on the bed" when I hear Brodie start crying and he is laying on the bed holding his head. I say, "see that's why we don't jump on the bed." Then he looks up and I feel a little bad as I see the knot beginning to form. He didn't cry for very long, but he does have a nice shiner now. It looks like he got punched in the eye. I'm not sure if I want to get that picture.

This morning, Abel and Brodie were eating pancakes in the dining room. I was just bringing in the last of the pancakes as I see Abel wiping Brodie's hands and saying, (partially to himself and partially to Brodie) "there is no reason to pet a pancake." Apparently Brodie had been saying 'nice' while petting his breakfast food. I just can't stop laughing thinking about this. That is just not a phrase you expect to say during your lifetime.

I'm sure Brodie will always remember these wise words.
