Oh Ezra

I thought I would write down some funny things Ezra has been saying lately.

The other day:  Ezra was outside with Emersyn playing baseball. He was pretending to hit the ball and then let his bat fly through the air. I came to the door and said "Ezra, be careful. That almost hit your sister." E: "But mom, that's what that other baseball player did". (talking about a baseball player he had seen that swung so hard his bat went into the stands) M: "Yes, but he did it on accident because he sung the bat so hard. You are doing it on purpose." E: "But mom, my bat went over Emersyn's head and didn't hit her. So, I am not in trouble."

Last night: Ezra wrote on the couch with a green crayon! He has never done this before and knows good and well we write on paper ONLY at the table. I came out of his room, from putting new sheets on his bed, to find this. E: "Mom, look! I wrote my name."  M: "Oh good. Let me see". (ezra points to the couch) M: " Ezra, why did you write on the couch." E: "Because I wanted to write my name and couldn't find a piece of paper." M: "Ezra, where do we color??" E: "On paper at the table." M: "Then why did you color on the couch?" E: " Mom, I told you. I wanted to write my name and couldn't find a piece of paper!"

Gosh... I will have to come back to this post. There were so many in my head this morning, and as the day goes on, and packing gets going I am blanking. He is getting to be so witty and funny and so SMART! I look at him sometimes and think. "you are only 3, right?!"
