Laraway Family

I have to post these two stories before they are forgotten. :)
While on the East Coast visiting family for Thanksgiving, the absurd happened. I don't think my mother-in-law meant to insinuate, but she in fact disagreed with me that my boys would never kill their father, have no remorse, and in turn brag about it. We were talking about a news story about an 8 year old boy doing just that, and she said (and I quote), "You don't know. You can't say that. (I had said "My boys would never..." and was interrupted with this) You never know." So, reflecting on this craziness while driving to see a friend, Russ proceeded to ask Anthony if he would ever. Obviously, Anthony told us that he would not. :) That led to a conversation about breaking the law, what jail was like, etc. Chas is reflecting on all of this and says the following:

"I could have fun in jail, playing I Spy with my imaginary friends."

A day or two later, I was telling Russ about something Chas had said. Russ and I usually lie down with the boys at night, but I had been staying a while with Chas and Starks while at my in-laws. The boys were busy, and Starks was exhausted at the end of the day from no nap. He'd fall asleep quickly with his head on my bicep as a pillow, and then I'd pull my arm out to leave. As soon as I did, he'd start snoring! So, Chas told me one morning that when I left, he started putting HIS arm under Starks' head. :)

After I told Russ what Chas had said that morning, Russ said, "Chas you hear mommy? [ yes] You're a good big brother."

Yeah and Anthony's just a big old smelly piece a poop.

Such humor from these boys here! We love it! In fact, they enjoy listening to Brian Regan's comedy act. We have his CD in iTunes, so we play it while we're driving. VERY FUNNY!
