The Joys of a 5 Year Old

Yesterday Ken was driving Chris to his sports class. Little did we know that the class was canceled since we moved and got a new phone number. Apparently on the ride there Ken was following behind a truck and could not see in front of it. The truck swerved lanes to avoid a car that was turning. Ken stopped short to avoid hitting the same car.
Chris says: Daddy you shouldn't stop so quickly.
Ken: I know son. I am sorry. I didn't want to hit that car though.
Chris: If I was eating something I would have choked!

In our new house the boys have locks on their doors. We use a coin to unlock them from the outside. Whenever Chris wants some time without his brother he goes into his room and locks the door. Well, last night I went to get Chris out of his room. His door was locked. I knocked. He asks "what?" I tell him to open the door. Next thing I know I hear him say "here, use this " and a quarter hits my foot. I picked up the quarter and opened the door. Once I walked in he puts his hand out and says "Can I have my quarter back?"

All I could do was shake my head and laugh about it later.
