Heard at the Landes House

Momma: "Good night Isaac"

Isaac: "Will you snuggle with me?"

Momma: "I can't tonight, I need to go to a meeting"

Isaac: (with determined, demanding face and attitude) "I WILL NOT GO TO SLEEP UNLESS YOU SNUGGLE WITH ME."

Momma: "Isaac, you don't get to give me an ultimatum"

Isaac: (with wide grin on his face as he holds out his cupped hand) "Here's your old tomato!!"

Momma: (stifles laugh, quickly turns out the light so Isaac won't see the snickering)

Don't ask me why I chose to use that particular word with my "too smart for his own good" four year old. I got what I deserved for sure!!

That is TOO funny! Isaac is such a hoot! And I must say that you and Gabe must be learning the best skills in restraining laughter when he says stuff like that!

Honestly, Isaac is a hoot! That is pretty quick wit.
