The boys were sad to see Tony go off to work one day. They said, "Don't go daddy." Tony said, "I have to go to earn you money for toys and candy." This is something his dad said to him growing up. Ben gets an excited look on his face and says, "Oh Yeah!! Thank you daddy!"
One Saturday, Tony was making dinner with Ryan and I was in the next room listening to their conversation. Ryan asked if Bratwursts are hot dogs. I heard Tony tell Ryan that Bratwursts are the celestial kingdom of hot dogs, and regular hot dogs are the telestial kingdom. Bratwursts is Ryan's new favorite food.
One of our friends told us a joke. It goes like this. What is the difference between an extroverted Finn and an introverted Finn? The introverted Finn will only look at his own toes, but the extroverted Finn has the courage to look at the other person's toes!" The Finns are known for keeping to themselves.
When Tony was cutting Ryan's hair recently, Tony said that he couldn't get Ryan's hair to stand up. Ryan told Tony to "just use the J-ello." Tony had recently explained to Ryan the properties of hair gel as he was getting ready for work one day.
I was at the grocery store one day with my friend and we were just chatting. All of a sudden she said, "Don't be surprised if children come to your door next Sunday dressed as witches waving sticks with feathers glued to them. This is our easter tradition" (See a future post on easter for the explanation) I thought that was pretty funny! I think I cannot help but be surprised by that!
