#1: Mommy, will you marry me?
me: Absolutely!
#1: You will be the princess then. I am a Prince! #2 is the littlest Prince -- he will want to marry you too, but I'm the big Prince and I asked first.

#2: Night, night.
me: Night, night #2 (put him in bed)
#2: NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Boooook.
me: Which book would you like to read? (break bedtime rules 1-10 and pull #2 back out of bed to choose story)
#2 takes off running at mock 10 into #1's bedroom; hides visibly in the corner giggling
me: What happened to night, night?
#2: Na Don (not done)
me: Will you ever be done?
#2: No (with this smile that reads ... lady, you are such a sucker ... it really shouldn't be this easy)

And finally ... #1 really likes to understand his schedule for the week - what day it is, when the weekend is coming up (Friday), is it a day that I work from home or in the office (Wednesday), will there be a babysitter tonight, etc. The questions are endless... So I found these freaking adorable Paul Frank underwear last week - 7 pairs, each with a monkey on the tush and the day of the week written above or below the monkey. #1 wakes up each morning and dresses himself - starting with, "Mommy, I see a "T" ... is this Tuesday?
Yesterday - "Monday" - he proudly walked into school and dropped his pants and monkey mooned his class. "Look, it's Monday!" I'm so proud. :)

Haaaaa! That is priceless! what did his teacher think?!
She has a great sense of humor and laughed. She put a note in our communication journal saying she loved the underwear ... I didn't quite know at the time how close she got to them. :)
