Logan the Fourth
Today is my son Logan’s birthday, and he’s turning four! I told him that meant he was growing up a little bit more, and I asked him what time he planned to do the growing. He said it would be at 3:00 PM. I asked him if he could hold it off until 6:00 PM so that I could be there to watch him expand, and he said he would try.
To celebrate this auspicious day I’m going to revisit some of the funniest quotes and conversations that we’ve collected from Logan over the past year. Here they are, sorted from earliest to most recent:
Dad: “Wow Logan, you built a Lego man with three heads. That’s great.”
Logan: “And two pee-pees.”
Dad: (Laughing) “And… what?!”
Logan: “Three heads. And two pee-pees.”
(August 2007)
Dad: “Logan, you need to stop jumping now and hold still.”
Logan: “Why?”
Dad: “…because if you don’t stop… I’ll have to cut your legs off.”
Logan: (Laughing hysterically) “You can’t do that! You don’t have a saw!!”
(August 2007)
Mom: “Logan, would you like to help me put away the silverware?”
Logan: “No…”
Mom: “I’ll let you put away the knives…”
Logan: “OKAY!”
(September 2007)
Logan: “Crocodiles share their food. Like the Bible says: ‘Share.’”
(March 2008)
Dad: “Let’s pray.”
Logan: “I’m gonna be a leopard seal when I’m done.”
(May 2008)
Logan: (Crying) “Mommy! I need a kiss on my owee!”
Mom: “Okay.” (Kisses it) “Is that better?”
Logan: “It still hurts! It hurts like a dinosaur bite!”
(June 2008)
Logan: “Mommy! Levi says that he’ll never be done — never EVER!!”
Levi: “I’m done.”
Logan: “Yay.”
(July 2008)
So, yeah. It’s been a fun year. Happy Birthday Logan!
