"I want to stink"


I have been pretty lazy lately and haven't posted anything so I thought I would take a few minutes this morning to write some things down before I forget them. Will's t-ball season starts this week. We thought he had practice on Wednesday (turns out my hubby got the days mixed up) and Will was very excited. He does have practice tonight. So I am sure I will have something funny to write about this weekend.
Wednesday was one of those days that is warm during the day and then really cool at night. Will and Dwayne both had on shorts and short sleeve shirts because we thought we were going to ball practice. Well, when we got home Dwayne decided he was going outside to work on something...Lord only knows what. Will, being the outdoorsman as he is, decided he would follow Dwayne outside. Take in mind it was about 45 degrees outside at the time...Dwayne told Will, "You aren't going outside without long pants and sleeves"...in the most stern voice possible. Will, using his most matter of fact voice said, "So then why are you going out with shorts and short sleeves?" I lost it!!!! Dwayne looked up at me and said..."God help me, he is just like you!" Such a smart baby, I mean big boy!!!
Last night Will and my nephew Jax had been playing the the bait tank...which was full of bait fish. So, when Will came in I told him he had to take a bath because he smelled bad. He said he didn't want to take a bath and that he liked to smell bad!! So this went on for about 5 minutes and then I got a bright idea that I knew would convince him to get in the tub. I said "If you can't listen to what I tell you, you can't listen to your coach and so you can't play ball". He spins around and looks at me like a freaking 13 year old (you know the look) and says, "mom, I want to play ball, and I want to stink, ok?" LOL...Dang! I finally convinced him that nobody wants to be around a stinky ballplayer and he got in the tub.
I have no idea what I am going to do when he gets to be a teenager. He kills me!
