Jacob, what a crack up!

Jacob was recently the "Teacher of the Day" at school and wanted to make a poster showing the different parts of a plant. This is what he came up with and was SOOOOOOO proud of himself. (Sorry I can't figure out how to rotate pictures. Any suggestions?) It was cute. I also wanted to share a couple of funny stories about Jacob. We were watching American Idol one night and Jacob came downstairs from bed with a bloody nose. He sat next to me while he was pinching his nose and saw Katherine McPhee in one of her famous dresses, if you know what I mean. Anyway, Jacob said, "Mom, that dress is not very good." (My kids love to be the modesty police) I told him, "You're right, Jacob. She needs a better dress on." He then said, "Yeah. She shouldn't be showing her line." Doug and I totally started cracking up and said, "Yep, she shouldn't be showing her line." (Line is aka for cleavage) So forever in our family will the word "line" have a double meaning.

Another cute one is while we were driving to school, Jacob out of nowhere asked if we changed after we died. I told him that we change when we're ressurrected and get our bodies back. I asked him what he wanted to change into. He answered that he wanted to change into a dog. Of course I asked him why and he answered by saying, "Dogs get to do lots of fun things." I asked him, "Like what fun things do they get to do that you don't?" He said, "Well, they get to pee and poop outside, and run around and chase after stuff. I wish I could change into a dog." I then got to explain all the not so great things about being a dog and he finally agreed he probably wouldn't want to change into a dog after he died. You know, he's a thinker!
