 So tonight my sons are getting a little rowdy and the 4-year-old throws a playful punch in the direction of his 1-year-old brother. I was mad at him so I said, "Hey! You don't hit your brother!" He looks me dead in the face and says, "Yeah, and you don't hit your wife." I just laughed and agreed with him. Damn it. He made me laugh with that one and made me break character.

Then he has this habit of whispering way too close in your ear so it tickles like crazy, so he leans in and goes, "And you don't punch Mary."

I said, "You mean like Mother Mary? No. You don't punch her either." He goes to a Catholic pre school even though we aren't religious - so he learns a bible thing or two up there.

Then he goes in for another whisper sesh and lets me know "And you don't punch Jesus." I told him, "Nope. Not him either."

Then this is when I lost it because he softly whispers, "And you don't punch the angels."

Oh man, just imagine running through those clouds socking all the angels you could right in their jaws, their halos flying off. It's hilarious.  I wish I could make a video game like that. I would play it all day until I got the all time high score. 

Good night, folks. Try not to throw any right crosses at any of your biblical figures.

I'll say...there is never a dull moment in the Noisewater household. Can you punch the bad fallen angels?!?!?!

"Punching the angels" is what got me. I had to laugh at that one!

Haha, gotta love what kids say. You should make that video game, I think it would be a big success.

Raising 'em right, Dr. Ken.

Mistress: You're right. But on a night like this some dull would be nice.

Jon: Yeah, that's where he got me too. Those poor unsuspecting angels.

LL: They keep you guessing for sure.

Shife: Right as rain.
