U-P

Hikawera does not enjoy doing his homework. It is the last thing on his mind now when he comes home from school. The bike outside beacons him to go there, then there is that grumbling stomach that needs attending... anything to get out of the H word....

Yesterday he did his homework with me, and it has become the norm now too for dad to sit with him and go over his reading and spelling when he comes home too. Last night they were sitting together going through his words and the word up came along. As he did not recognise it for what ever reason, he had to do it again at the end. He must have thought he was finished and was destracted by something else going on because when dad asked him what is U - P he exclaimed, "WHERE!!". (think about it and it will click)
Well we all had a really good laugh, it seems all he heard was "you pee", not U-P.... you HAVE to love this kid!!!!!

Flashback - Rotten teeth?

I was putting the boys to bed the other night, and as usual you go through the usual teeth toilet, bed etc... I asked Rakai, did you brush your teeth? He said no. (He was honest) So, I said, "do you want your teeth to fall out while you are asleep?" He answered with a sad look on his face, "yes, cause then I can get some money". Oh that was such a Rakai thing to say!! I had to counter that (trying not to laugh) by telling him that the tooth fairy doesn't give money for rotten teeth! Then, Hikawera pipes up saying he got $5 for a rotten (dead actually from being banged) tooth that the dentist had to pull out. I had to go into real damage control then!! Rakai comes out with the funniest things sometimes. He is golden. 

Volleyball

Teancum really enjoys playing volleyball. He jumped right into the teams at boys high, and within a couple of weeks, he was in the 'A' team. They came runner up this season to a solid Hillcrest school team. An awesome group of boys.
