Today produced more fine "Liamisms." --I've always loved a man who could make me laugh and truthfully none have conquered my funny bone (nor my heart!) so completely as my son. He is truly the funniest little person I know and tickles my soul on a daily basis.
Good thing for him too, because his gift for provoking laughter often prevents me from wringing his little neck at times.
Today Daddy took Liam to preschool. Upon arrival, the sweet smell of cinnamon wafted through the center... the yummy fragrance of french toast sticks. Kevin walks Liam into his room and spying the kids' breakfast says, "Wow, french toast sticks! Mmmm. I might have to stay and have breakfast. Can I stay and have some french toast sticks with you?"
Liam promptly responds, "You'll have to go to your own class Daddy. This is MY class."
Fast-forward to the afternoon:
I fetch the child and we're heading out to the car when Liam stops to chat up the director.
"Are you going home?"
Liam nods.
"What are you having for dinner tonight?"
"I don't know," Liam replies shrugging his little shoulders.
"Do you want some suggestions for dinner?" she asks.
"No," he says, "we don't have any of that at home."
"Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh."
...W. H. Auden
