The other day Eli and I were over at my brother Nick's house for his son Andy's birthday party. For most of the evening the kids played very nicely with each other. After presents had been opened and cake eaten the kids were playing with the new cars, when a fight erupted over one of the toys. It was a battle between Andy and Eli, and it got heated, but before it could go to the point of throwing punches, I removed Eli to my lap, and proceeded to hold him there until he calmed down. He asked to be let go and I could tell he still had anything but peace on his mind. So I asked him if he was going to go play nice with Andy or was he going to be mean. This was Elis response:
"I can't tell you, it's a secret"
I wonder what his intentions were going to be, what do you think?
He did finally calm down enough and go play nicely, but we all got a good laugh over the "its a secret"

Ben and I still crack up about that! I also like..."I just love warm suckers!" which he said on the way to the airport on Monday.
Don't you just love it when they use our own tricks against us?!
Ha! I love it! I have been meaning to call you! We have had colds and Hand foot mouth disease at my house, so it hasn't been a great time to hang out.
I'm so glad I FOUND your blog--we'll miss you guys! Cute pictures of the birthday boys.
