The Mighty Beals Family: Golden Spoon Treat

Golden Spoon Treat

Jackson has been trying hard in school to get to the "treasure box" each week since school began at the beginning of the year. When he behaves or does well, he is sometimes rewarded by getting to pick a prize out of the treasure box; and every time he gets to he picks the same thing: a free frozen yogurt card from "The Golden Spoon". Every time he got one he told me he was saving it. Well, by November he had earned 4 cards and has been begging to use them ever since. I don't know why it's taken this long, but we finally went today. He gave each of his siblings a card he had earned so they could all have a frozen yogurt too. He was so excited to be able to do that for his siblings and they all LOVED that he shared his prizes with them. Sometimes he can be so sweet!

He Said What!!??

**We were all going to go swimming at my mom's house, so I told the boys to go get into their swimming suits. I looked downstairs a couple minutes later and Jackson was downstairs naked. I said, "Jackson! You are too big to be running around the house naked!" He called back, "I'm not running." I said, "Fine. You are too big to be walking around the house naked." He paused a minute and said, "What about skipping?"
**Jeramy asked Sawyer to bring my laptop upstairs to me, but to walk slowly and hold it with two hands. He started walking up the stairs then stopped and said, "But Dad, what if one of my parts starts itching."
**Jackson's primary class was having a lesson on different ethnicities (or something to that nature) and Jackson asked his teacher (who is Hawaiian), "Sister Anderson, are you brown or are you white?" She said, "I don't know, what do you think?" He said, "Well, your skin is brown, but you act white."
**Jackson told his primary teacher, "Hey, your stomach is getting big." She said, "I know, I'm going to have a baby." He said, "What are you, Mother Nature?"
***Jeramy was washing Sawyer's hair and Sawyer didn't like it, so he said, "Dad! You're hurting my bones."
***Sawyer asked me to write down the number "fittyitty" on a piece of paper for him. I didn't know what he ment so I said, "50?" No, so I said "15?" No, so I kept on asking until I was out of ideas. Then he said, "the one you can't count to." OH, "infinity?" "Yeah, Mom, that's what I said, 'fittyitty'>"
***I was driving and Sawyer said, "Mom, what does does it look like on the inside of a car and a train and a bus and a truck and an airplane and everything in the whole wide world?"
