Really...

The comment really is just for me, really has it been that long since I have blogged, I feel so bad.

School has started, my little one is now in 4th grade. He loves it, I don't know how we are going to pass because homework means serious business in this class. Wow, he has had so many punches (aka demerits) because we have not signed something or turned it in on time. I guess we will only learn as we go.

My favorite thing overheard at the first day of school after the teacher described Fun Friday's and what fun things they usually do "This is going to be the best year ever!", more power to you teach for getting them to say that.

My other favorite thing so far is a homework assignment that H had, a questionnaire about his name, it goes like this...

Why did your parents choose your name?
It was the only name they could agree on. (this is a very true statement)

If you were named after someone, who was it?
Isaac is my dad's Jewish name. (again true)

What nicknames do you have, and how did you get them?
Hunt from Garrett. (I have never heard him call this and part of the reason why I agreed to Hunter was because you couldn't shorten it)

Do you like your name? Why or why not?
Yes cause it's a good name. (glad he likes his name)

If you could choose another name, would you, and what would it be?
If I got tired of Hunter it would be Officer. (is this because you could choose it as a profession? I love the way his little mind works)

Funny kid thoughts...

So I had asked H what he wanted for dinner yesterday, he said hot dogs and we picked up a package of Nathan's hotdogs for dinner. While getting them cooked he says "These are Nathan's, that's not fair why do Nathan and Iggy have things named after them?" (Iggy's is a sports bar and grill), I turned to him and I say "you have something with your name too", he turns and looks at me and says "That's true but it's just furniture". I didn't realize there was a rank on what has your name, but to the boy there is.

While we were shopping at the store though of course the boy does what he does best and just is him, running around playing with all the toys possible and just putting , well while he was being him I had some lady walk up to me. I thought she was going to tell me that he said something or hit someone with a toy, but much to my surprise just kept complementing me on him. She said he had such personality. Usually I am very humble but when it comes to compliments about my son I just love it and I have even more pride him him than he could ever know. Of course when I told him what she had said he decided that the remainder of the shopping trip was going to be filled with more action, so what I roll my eyes to at times I guess other find a bubbling personality. I should learn to love it more.
