Funny Boys

My boys are so funny! They come up with the craziest things and have me laughing all the time. Gavin comes up with a lot of stuff while we are taking Preston to school or waiting to pick him up. Here are a few of the funny things they have said lately.
Gavin- "mama, trees with no leaves are scary- don't look at them"
Gavin- "I wish I had a collection of clouds"
Gavin- He always comments when the song White Horse by Taylor Swift comes on because he says she isn't a princess or something like that. The other day it came on when we were all in the car and I said Gavin what song is this, thinking he would say it was the princess song. Instead he says it's White Horse. I had no idea he knew what it was called, maybe sirius needs to play some new music!
Preston- "Those clouds look wrinkled like someone washed them. I think Jesus washed the clouds"
The boys were talking about their full names and Gavin said mine is Gavin Patrick Boyles and Preston said mine is Preston Anthony Boyles. Gavin asked Preston "do you know Anthony"? Preston answered "Anthony is a Wiggle". I laughed and assured him he was not named after a Wiggle!

The other day Gavin went to let the "stray" cat inside, and called to me "I think I saw a mouse" and I said that's cool, because I was sure he didn't. A couple minutes later he comes walking in my bedroom and says "look mama, I found a little mouse and I caught it." There is Gavin holding a very small mole! I tried not to freak him out so I calmly said I think that is a baby mole, let's go take it back outside. He asked what a mole was, and I said it won't hurt you, just take it back outside, and of course he freaks out and drops it on the living room floor. I didn't want to pick it up, and now neither does he and we have 2 cats and a dog trying to see it. So I called Patrick and asked if he was close to home (he works right here) and he came and got it. I would have done it myself if he wasn't close by-I promise! All I know is that I need to work hard on making the boys scared to death of snakes! All I need is one of them saying "look mama, I caught a poisonous snake!"
