King of the Dirt Hill

So our Brody man is quiet the big boy and we get comments on it all the time. People can't believe how tall he is, how he has thinned out, and just how grown up he is. We think he is a pretty cool little kid and a lot of fun to be around! He had watched closely for a few days as a lot of diggers and tractors and dump trucks dug a huge hole close by our house and piled all of the dirt up into one huge pile. He had begged for me to let him climb up it so one day when all the crews had left I let him attempt it. I know it is just a pile of dirt but I was pretty impressed.

That's a pretty big pile, huh?

Other funny/grown up things he has done lately include.....

*Banning me from playing games with him on the computer. He told me I wasn't good at this motorcycle racing game and that I just didn't know how to do it. He said he needed to finish the race for me and that I should watch him from now on.

*Conversation we had about dying and heaven.

B: When are we going to heaven?

I: When we die

B: Right. When am I going to die?

I: When you are old

B: Are you old?

I: No

B: Who is old?

I: GG

B: But GG isn't in heaven

I: Nope. But other people her age are.

Probably not the best answer to all of his questions but he seem satisfied with my answers and then ran off and played.

*I was giving Meg a bath one afternoon and Brody was playing in the living room. I noticed how quiet it had got and I kept saying his name and asking him what he was doing. He wouldn't answer. About he fourth time he said "I'm watching tv. Stop annoyed me". I didn't know whether to laugh or get mad.
