More Crazy Ryley

You're probably tired of hearing about Ryley - it seems like I've done a lot of posts about him lately! But he said a couple of funny things yesterday and I want to write them down before I forget!

Yesterday at breakfast:

Maddie: Mom, why can't a girl be the Prophet?
Me: Well, girls don't have the Priesthood and you have to hold the Priesthood to be the Prophet.
Maddie: Why can't girls have the Priesthood? (Geez, do I have a future feminist on my hands?)
Me: That's just the way Heavenly Father has made us. Girls get to do lots of other things that boys don't get to do. Like, have babies and be the mommies.
Ryley: Yeah, and have boobies that make your shirt go out like this. Right mom? (While he pulls his shirt out with his fingers making some boobies for himself.)
Me: Uh, (stifling laughs because he is completely serious!) yes, Ryley. And girls get to have boobies too.

Last night:
(A little clarification first - after Josh got home he put me to bed because I had a massive migraine and earache. He then made dinner, fed the kids, and bathed them too. What a man! Anyway, the kids must have asked where I was at dinner and he told them I had a bad headache. This is what Ryley said to me after I came back upstairs after a nap to tell the kids goodnight.)

Ryley: Mom, why do you have a headache? Is it because of all me and Maddie's words?

That just made me laugh. I made sure that he knew my headache was not caused by him, although all of his and Maddie's words sure didn't help it any! I guess he thought this because I often tell them (after they have asked me a bazillion questions) that my ears are tired and need a break. That will usually get me about 45 seconds of peace. Better than nothin' I guess.

He's a funny one, that Ryley!

You feeling better? That would be nuts if you had an ear infection...although John totally had one a month or so ago. Those Ryley comments are too funny. I'm glad that you're sharing them with us!
