Well - actually...

When I came home from the hospital the other night, Amy handed me a sack from the local Hallmark store with a couple of items inside. She said that Isaiah had been shopping and picked out the two things inside. One was a Precious Moments character in a police car that he bought for his Crampa. The other was from the Henry elephant line. Isaiah and I both like elephants.

Amy said he'd picked that out and when they were at the counter asked if they could afford to buy it - meaning how much did it cost (it was on sale so they didn't know). I looked it over and commented on how cute it was.

The next morning, as Isaiah was getting ready for school I told him how nice the police car was and that Crampa would love it. Then I said I loved the elephants and thanked him.

He said (with one hand on his hip and the other extended with his palm up), "Well, actually - it's for me."

Well - actually... he cracks me up.

I'm busy...

Yesterday morning, Amy was trying to get out the door to get Isaiah to school and her to work. They were already late because she thought she was going to be able to take Isaiah to the hospital to see his Crampa, but I told her that since he was not in a private room she should not bring him up. Plus, Ron just didn't feel well enough to have Isaiah climbing all over him.

So... Isaiah was watching Noggin while sitting in Ron's chair. He's got his elbow resting on the arm of the chair and his head resting in his hand.

Amy says, "Isaiah, get your coat on. It's time to leave."

Isaiah replied, "Just a minute. I'm busy."

It was all I could do to keep a straight face and not snort. He didn't mean anything by it - he was being sincere in thinking he was busy and it could wait. Amy told him she thought he forgot who he was talking to...

He got his coat on.

Spring program

The first grade class had their program this past Thursday. Isaiah didn't have a speaking part but that didn't stop him from knowing all the words to everyone else's speaking part! He is so smart and has a mind like a trap. He knew all the words to every song as well. It was so cute to watch the kids sing and perform.
