The Parent Trap

* driving to Shopper's after Brady's dentist appt. tonight *

Brady: Can you believe it Mom, I was so brave tonight?

Mom: I know buddy, I'm so proud of you!  No tears at all tonight.

Brady: I did have 1 tear, but I sucked it back in & let her keep going!

Mom: What???  Really???  I didn't see even 1 tear.

Brady: I felt it, but I just squeezed your hand tight & didn't get upset.

Mom: I can tell you're growing up, because you were such a brave young man tonight.  I'm so proud of you Brady.

Brady: I'm so proud of myself too!

Mom: Well, wait until Daddy, Nana & Luca hear how great you did, they'll be so proud of you too!

Brady: I know Mom, and they'll know that I was brave & that you did some great parenting too!

Mom: Thanks Brady!  * laughing hysterically *

Juicy, juicy, juicy!!! :)

Mom: Hey honey, how was your day?

Brady: Good!

Mom: So what's 1 thing you learned today at school?

Brady: Ooohhh, today we learned about JUICY words!!!

Mom: What's that?

Brady: Well, you know...a juicy word is a word that's in a story and it makes the reader want to keep reading more.

Mom: Okay, yeah that makes sense.  So what's a juicy word that you've learned?

Brady: Uumm, "appreciate" is a juicy word, and "bellowed" is a juicy word too.

Mom: What's "bellowed" mean?

Brady: You know when you yell at me "Brady clean your room!!!", like that?

Mom: Yeah.

Brady: When you yell you bellow, 'cause bellowed is the same as yelled.

Mom: Are you sure you're only in grade 2 this year?

Brady: Yeah, I'm sure.
