the best little boy ever

every week in miles' kindergarten class they have share day. tuesday is miles' specific share day, the teacher sends home a list of what to share on the child's day.  this week, the share was suppose to be something orange. miles looked and looked around the house and couldn't figure out what he wanted to share. i was giving maisy a cup of goldfish crackers to eat and it came to me.  i asked miles if he wanted to bring fish crackers for his orange share?  i told him i'd make baggies of crackers for all the kids in the class.  he said, "mom, that's a great idea."  i started to walk away to get dinner ready, and he tells me, "mom, you're the best mom i've ever known." and gave me a hug and a kiss.  made my day! 

earlier in the day, miles and i were arguing over something, he told me he wasn't going to talk to me for the rest of the day.  i told him that would be great, i'd have a nice quiet, relaxing day.  he got mad that i said that, then he said (and this is the part that cracked me up), then i'll just call you dad all day... like it's an insult.  when did the word dad become a fighting word? ha ha ha, just had to share .
