Puzzling or the Puzzle King

Sam is really into puzzles. Really into puzzles. He just loves doing them and he's really good at them. He has puzzles that range from 12 pieces to 100 pieces and he can do them all...by himself. I love watching him put them together, seeing his little mind work. Lest you think I'm one of those mothers who thinks her child is a genius and can do no wrong, I can guarantee you I am not. I can say with certainty that he is very good at puzzles and probably a lot better at them than most kids his age. However, this is the same kid who likes to pee on his hands in the bathtub. It all evens out. Here are some highlights of things Sam has learned or said. Most of the "bad" stuff he learned from us, his parents, so what does that say?

A: Sam, what is Walmart?
S: Icky Gross
A: That's right. And what is Target?
S: Wicked awesome.

C: Where does food go when you put it into your mouth?
S: Down my belly and into my stinky diaper.

A: That pizza was crap
S: It wasn't crap, it was awesome.

A: Chris, that's because you're stupid.
S: Daddy's not stupid, he's funny.

C:(Listening to music in the car) Hey, let's rock out.
S: No daddy don't. It's dangerous to rock out.

C: Where are gonna go to school?
S: Hmmm, BY Woo.

C: Did you have a bad dream last night?
S: Yes
C: What was it about?
S: Eyeballs.

Chris's Mom: Let's get your shoes on so we can go outside.
S: I don't need shoes, I have my feet.

S: (After the opening hymn at church) That was a good song.

S: (Eating a breadstick in the car) I'm going to eat it...all...gone.

We've also done nice things, like telling him about the temple. We told him that you go there to get married and be baptized for dead people. The first time he saw the temple he said "I want to get married." Now he will just randomly start telling anyone that "we go to the temple to get married and baptize by proxy."

Oh, how I love my Sam.
