The Cisco Kid and I were shopping for a couple of pumpkins. I told the Cisco kid he could pick them out. As he was searching for the pumpkins I would guide him into making the right choice. As he was picking them, he would say. Ok mom! This is a good one. He chose the ugliest pumpkins. I would tell him what was wrong with it and have him pick out another. He probably went through about five pumpkins when I decided to pick it out. Now it was time for him to pick the second pumpkin. Again he was picking the ones with broken stems and discolored, again I would shoot his choices down. He got to the end of his rope and mumbled under his breath. Mom you’re doing it again!!!!! I asked, what am I doing again. He said: You’re not letting me pick the one I want!!!!! I died laughing. I could not stop. It was so funny. I loved the fact that he stood up for himself in a cute way.
He made a perfect choice after all.

I'm picking out the pumpkin. NO! I'm picking out the pumpkin
Its "What would your children say?" Wednesday. Time fly’s by with our children growing up so fast. This is a great way to cherish and remember those moments when they catch you by surprise with their great personalities.
Funny story! This is why our family buys FOUR pumpkins!! We each get to pick, even if it's ugly, and Tony buys THE pumpkin for major carving work to ensure it is good for such a project. What is with kids? They ALWAYS choose the ugly pumpkins, but I let mine do it because it is their pumpkin.
