Mom told me to go get in my pajamas. I was pretty distracted, so the 5th time she asked me she said, "Nathan, if I see your little bum one more time without pajamas on, I am going to spank it." So I ran out of the room, but then ran right back in and turned and shook my bum at her.

I was heading to my room, but not watching where I was going so I face planted into the wall. I cried and cried. Mom comforted me, and then sent me on my original task. I still was crying a little bit when I was walking away. I noticed Mom was watching me so I pretended to run into the wall again, and busted up laughing.

Lately when I eat an apple I get the seeds out and make Dad help me plant them in the back.
-
Every morning I climb into bed with Mom and snuggle with her. Well one day she had bad morning breath, so I went and got her toothbrush, climbed back into bed, and brushed her teeth.

We went on hike at Pickett's Mill Battlefield. There were trails made by Eagle Scouts. I asked what the sign said and Dad told me that an Eagle Scout made this trail. "Does that mean this trail is for birds?"
-
I am pretty excited for the baby. I like to talk to her. However, I think I have to open Mom's mouth and talk into it to talk to her.
-
Mom said I was in charge of teaching the baby her body parts when she gets bigger. I got a big grin on my face and pointed to my eyes and said, "Baby, these are elbows." I am going to teach her wrong.

"What's the Spanish word for burrito?"

I have a can that I save my money in now. I wanted to buy a toy. Mom said I could earn money by setting the table. I told her no thanks. I would rather just walk around and find money. (Because that is what I do. Don't leave any spare change laying around, or I put it in my can.)
-
Dad and I go swimming almost everyday. Well Dad got a sunburn because he didn't put on sunscreen. I lectured him for a good five minutes. "Dad you made a bad choice. You need to listen to Mom and put sunscreen on. That is a good choice. Promise me Dad you will make better choices. Promise me."
-
I learned about keeping the Sabbath Day holy at church. When the next door neighbor and his dad came over on Sunday and asked me if I could go swimming (it was Sunday), I gave them a lecture about how we don't go swimming on Sunday. Sunday is special.
-
My goal in life is to go on a spaceship. Mom said I have to be really smart to go on a spaceship and go to college. "Did Dad get to go on a spaceship after he went to college?"
-
Once again the spaceship conversation came up. "I can go on a spaceship now because I am a genius." Mom asked me if I knew what a genius was. "Mom, it means I know everything."
