Hunting for a Girlfriend!

So, Noah is about to go to bed the other night and leans in to give me a kiss and hug.

He says, "How do you get your breath really fresh?"

I smile and say, "Why, do I smell good?"

He says, "No." ....so much for my self-esteem!
Then he says, "What is the deal with mouthwash? What does it do"

I'm chuckling at this point, "Why, got a girl you want to kiss?"

He ignores me and goes on to ask questions, "What is better a mint or mouthwash?" and we discuss dental hygiene for a bit.

I ask again, "Do you have a girlfriend or something I need to know about?"

He smiles and says matter-of-factly, "Nope, but I figure it is about time to go out and get one."

At this point, I'm all but rolling in the floor with laughter but trying to remain composed so he'll continue to talk to me.

I say, "So, do you have someone in mind. Got a girl in your scope?"

Without missing a beat he says, "Mom, like all good hunters, I've picked out the best deer."

Now I can't hold it in anymore. I'm laughing and I kiss him good-night.
The next afternoon I ask him how did hunting went.

"No good he said. Didn't have the ammo," pausing, he sighs and says, "Which basically means, I didn't have the guts, Mom."

I love this kid. He makes me smile every moment, chuckle frequently and sometimes even fills my day with big belly laughs!

the things he says....

Last night, Tim and Noah were leaving a hunting class. After sitting for three hours, he had a lot of energy to release!

He ran and jumped onto the ball on the back of the truck - or rather attempted to. It was a near damaging accident to, um, an area down below.

Tim said Noah stood up, exhaled loudly, and said, "Whew! I about broke my couch!"

Nearly snorting, Tim tries to remain composed and asks what he meant.

"Well...maybe a love seat then," he says.

At this point, Tim is about to pass out from needing to laugh when Noah looks at him matter-of-factly and says, "you know, Dad, my f-u-r-n-i-t-u-r-e!"

Tim said it was all he could do to drive home, between the tears and side splitting pains of laughter!
