A few Aidan quotes I scribbled down during the holidays...
While reading his Nativity Story book, when asked how the Three Wise Men journeyed to Bethlehem:
"They rode canimals!" (camels)
While reading a Cars story in which Fillmore runs into a cactus:
"It would VERY hurt to run into a cactus."
After putting on his new LSU helmet and jersey on Christmas morning:
"Hey Pappy, will you tackle me?"
Overheard later that day, while playing with his new Angry Birds game:
"The Angry Bird is getting a hug from the pillow pet! Now he's not angry anymore.
Oh, he's back in the slingshot now, and he's VERY angry."
The morning after Christmas, to Pappy, regarding his new bumblebee Pillow Pet. which was given to him by Aunt Lindsay:
"Thank you for my beautiful bumblebee! I very love it!"
Outside while riding bikes/scooters with the neighbors' grandkids:
Come see, Mama! Come see what I very don't like in the whole wide world. It's called ... an ANT PILE.

A belated Merry Christmas and a just-under-the-wire Happy New Year!
