I agreed to let Jude have ice cream for dinner because he has a loose tooth. Â Right after he finished he said, “I finished my dinner, can I have some candy?”

“I want to learn about God.”
(And, Jude just plopped my bible on my lap, indicating he wanted to read it with me. Very exciting.)
Jude has a loose bottom baby tooth. It will be his first tooth to fall out. He is beyond excited.  My boys don’t believe in the tooth fairy any more than Santa Claus but they of course still expect some sort of reward. $1 a tooth or so seems like more than enough, but I suppose I should do some benchmarking with other parents. I wouldn’t want to be too generous given that he likes all his money to go to buy Skylanders or other silly plastic toys that get scattered over the house and tripped over, instead of something smart like the college fund.
Jude to me (while sobbing): “You make me do chores without giving me any money! Â You’re just using me for a slave! Â The only reason why you give me food is so I can stay alive and do more chores!”
“Don’t go to work without me!”
Anonymous to Jude: “I may need to get a new job.”
Jude to Anonymous: “How much does it cost to get a new job?”
“Where is heaven? Because if heaven is on a cloud, I will fall out of heaven.”

Jude to me at breakfast time: “Can I have a Kinder Egg?”
Me to Jude: “I would say no.”
Jude: “So does that mean yes or no?”
