Kids say the darndest things.

Jackson is a crack up. I am amazed at some of the things he comes up with. One of my favorite times to listen to him is bed time. We put him to bed between 7:30 or 8 and he often is still awake after 10. He will sit in his bed and sing every song he knows, have conversations with all his favorite people, and recite the days events. One particular evening, Tony was trying to get him to lay down and go to sleep. Before potty training, we often let him have a sippy cup by his bed to eliminate getting up 28 times for a drink of water. To give Jackson an incentive to stay in bed, Tony told him that if he didn’t lay down he would take away his sippy cup. A few minutes after leaving the room, we hear Jackson calling for Daddy. Upon entering the room, Jackson held out his sippy cup and said, “Here’s my sippy cup, Daddy. I can’t lay down.”
