HTisms

My youngest, and his perspective on life often amuses me.  I think in part that is because he has such a happy-go-lucky personality and always has.  Monday evening, we decided to take the kids to Tumbleweeds Restaurant.  We had a coupon for free kids' meals, and since JR is at scout camp, we would only have to pay for my husband and me.  HT, however, was insistent that he didn't want to go.  Of course we went anyway, and of course he enjoyed every minute of his cheeseburger and seasoned waffles fries.  I asked him later why he hadn't wanted to go and he replied, "I didn't want to eat weeds for dinner."  I share his opinion on that, and was rather amused that he actually thought we would try to feed him weeds for dinner!

Next week we are headed to Norris Lake in Tennessee for a long weekend.  Some relatives have a place on the lake and have invited us down for a few days.  The kids knew we were going to Tennessee, but didn't necessarily know the name of the lake.  JC asked yesterday about the name of the lake.  I replied, "Norris Lake."  HT giggled and pointed out that if you take off the "lake" and add "Chuck" in front then you have "Chuck Norris."  He was quite pleased with his discovery.  He then mentioned (and I'm sure he's heard this joke from a friend who LOVES to tell Chuck Norris jokes from the internet) that there had been talk about adding Chuck Norris to Mount Rushmore and changing the name to "Mount Toughmore."  He then chuckled quite heartily at his own "funny".

I love seeing what these kids come up with everyday!
