My funny James

James and I had a funny little conversation today. Let me preface this story by saying that my boys don't watch TV. Every 4-6 months they suddenly remember what TV is and decide to mainline it for a couple days and then we go back to no TV for awhile. Right now we are in the watch TV phase of this cycle. Anyway without further ado, here is a classic James moment.

James: (mumbling lots of stuff)
Mom: What sweetie?
James: Have you heard of the national grow-up plan?
Mom: No, what is that?
James: Well, (gibberish)...you give a kid like a thousand or a hundred dollars or something and then they can get the rest that they need.
(At this point I am thinking he means one of those "adopt a kid from Africa so they can have clean water and rice" things)
Mom: So what kid do you give this money to?
James: You can give it to any kid, like your own kid...(smiles) and then they can get the rest.
Mom: So I give you a hundred dollars and then you can get the rest of what?
James: The rest of your money(said as if this whole thing makes complete sense).
Mom: (Peeing pants laughing and trying to summarize what he has just told me)
Will: For more information or to speak with a representative call 1-800......
