Pizza Talk

The boys had some friends over for legos, a swim, wipeout II on the Wii, and a sleep-over. I would have loved to record the 8 and 9 year old dinner conversation that occured at my table as I laughed hysterically across the room listening, and choking on my veggie pizza at times.


"Do you have any arm-pit hair yet?"

"No, but I know this 13 year old, he has 1 hair under there."

"Oh, that's the awkward stage. All the way until your 19 your awkward. From 13 to 19."

**pause to talk about canteloupe, who thinks it's gross and grab another piece of pizza**

"We get to go to some water slides and spend the night there for brother's birthday."

"Oh, cool. Can I come?"

"Yeah, I got to go there with Jorgia. It was kind of a girls party, but it was fun."

"You went to a girls party?!"

**Mom intervened... "That's his girlfriend. The girls like D and think he's fun to be around."**

**chuckle, chuckle from the boys. Then D starts to expressively flex his bicept muscle and says "see" (like this will save him)**

"That's a puney one."

"Oh yeah, well I have a six pack."

"So do I, I think."

"My dad doesn't really have one, but look Ashton has like a two pack". ** All standing on their knees looking at eachother's stomachs... at the dinner table.**

"I have a four one." **pointing, counting at his stomach**


The kids have, at this point inhaled their last piece of pizza and climbed off their chairs as if it were a race because they made a group decision to go out for round two in the pool. They were so quick they didn't even bother to put on their suits but went in their underwear. And I, of course had to get a picture of the pool comroderey in the boxers. But I will spare them the embarassment of sharing in a post and keep it to myself and in their photo-albums and the parents who need a laugh... to remember how silly these boys are. I just love them.
