Sam has said some funny things lately. A couple of months ago at Mother’s Day Out he had an accident on his nap mat. His teachers told John that they couldn’t get mad at him because he told them with a serious look on his face, “This was not my idea.”
Then a few weeks later, my friend Priscilla was over at the house and she was trying to get Sam to say something in Spanish. He told her, “I can’t say that, Tia. I am not dark.” We both laughed so hard. I guess he thinks only “dark” people speak Spanish.
Just last week John was having a discussion with Sam about how he needs to be obedient and that if he is not obedient, then he (John) is going to make Sam’s life hard. Before the last word was out of John’s mouth, Sam said, “No, Daddy. I need it squishy.” So much for a serious discussion!

What’s a squishy?
He is a character. What about our last visit? When I asked him about kicking Nana (he had kicked her the last time she visited — he was very into kicking at the time). He told me, “Gracey, don’t say that, it’s not nice”. (I guess he didn’t want to talk about it).

I don’t think a squishy is a “thing”. He was telling John he wants his life to be squishy as opposed to being hard.

That is actually a very smart remark for a 3 year old…smart, like intelligent.
