Things I never imagined I would say...

Just a few things that I have said in the last week I never imagined myself saying...
"If you two break one more Christmas ornament- We just won't have Christmas at all."
"NO- Angels do Not dive bomb the shepards!"
"I am not always mean, but I am always in charge so you better start listening to what I say."
"Batman and his friends do not live in the Christmas tree. No- It is not their best hiding place. Please keep your toys out of my tree."
"All the crying and whining in the world will not keep the snow from melting."
"There is no way that I can call Jesus to ask him to come to his birthday party at our house... He is very busy and we just can't be sure that he will be able to have cake at our house... and we might not even have cake that day." (this one tends to be the ongoing conversation... Gav is pretty concerned about Christmas and what it all means, and now he is always looking for a new angle on the argument. I am running out of ideas for my side of the discussion.)

Little boys ruin us, I was once a noble chap before our little man came to earth and turned me into a christmas-hating monster.

Great quotes! Usually we all post kids' quotes, but I love that your quotes paint the picture of what exactly was going on.
