A new J-ism

A little while back I had a girls night at a girlfriends house. It was pretty close so I left babe with two children who were wide awake, grumpy and ready for bedtime. I attempted to get them to sleep but it didn't work and if I hung around until they drifted off I would have missed the entire girls night! So off I went. I gave myself some extra Rescue Remedy sprays and prayed for the best.

I checked in with Z to see how everyone was doing and if I needed to come home. He got Eme Lu to sleep and was working on J. It wasn't going so well. When I got home I walked in to find Z sitting upright in the living room chair with Eme asleep on his chest and J asleep next to him sitting up as well. This is the story I heard..

Babe said J was having a tough time not having me home to lay with him. This was the dialogue between them..

J: "Dad drive me over there"
Z: "No buddy I'm not going to drive you over there. Mom will be home soon."
J: "Then I'm going to drive over there"
Z: "But you don't have a license"
J: "I'm just going to borrow yours daddy"

My three year old cracks me up! I thought this was one of the best J-isms to date! A photo to go along with the story..
