Today...
Ty: Mom, lift me up so I can see (in the mirror) if I am pretty or fancy.
Me: So, are you pretty or fancy?
Ty: I'm the right size...I'm fancy!
A minute later...
Me: Why are you fancy?
Ty: Fancy means I'm a brother and pretty means you're a Mom.
The other day...
Justin: Mom, of all the Mom's that come to help in my class, you're the nicest.
Me: Thanks. Are all the other Mom's mean?
Justin: Oh, I don't mean that, I mean the way you look. (smiles and hugs me)
Me: Well, that's a sweet thing to tell your Mom! (I didn't tell him this, but he secretly put a little hop in my step that day!)
A couple of weeks ago...
Justin: Sometimes I think you're the worst Mom in the world.
Me: What?
Justin: And then sometimes I think you're the best mom in the world!
Me: (laughing now!)
Justin: It's like you are in 15th place to the best Mom in the world.
Me: What?
Justin: (back pedaling) I mean you're in 2nd place so 1st place is the best Mom and 2nd place is the worst Mom. See? You're not that bad!
Me: I think you had better stop while you're ahead, Mister! :)
Oh, boy. These all cracked me up, but I think "Fancy" was the funniest! What am I going to do when they stop saying the darndest things? I know I'll miss it.

Your boys are SO hilarious! They're going to love reading these conversations when they're older.
There is something sweet and precious about a compliment from a son. Jack went through a stage where he didn't want my hair in a ponytail, and would seriously get mad if my hair wasn't styled the way he liked it! Now, when he tells me I smell good or look pretty, it pretty much melts my heart.
And I'm sure that when Justin grows up, he'll realize you really were in 1st place all along!
It must have been April Fools Day, because you are definitely 1st place!
Yes, I agree with Holli. You both deserve 1st place . . . I'm down there with the rest of the inepts. :)
I am glad that my boy isn't the only one that puts his foot in his mouth! =) I loved the fancy one too. Your boys really do say the funniest things, an I am glad you share them with us!
