I have a Great Idea

I need to post a picture of him once he says " Hey Nanny!, I have a great idea!" His face takes on certain characteristics, raised eyebrows, slight smile, and the hand gesture that lets you know he is making a point! He came up with a good one this morning and we had to laugh while looking astonished at each other. He had asked me to play a game with him and I told him to ask his Poppa because I was tired of playing. I played all during the week with them and I didn't want to play right now ( I know one day I will wish I had not said that!) Anyway he comes over to the couch where I was sitting and says.." Hey Nanny, I have a great idea!" I say, "Really, what kind of idea do you have?" He stretches out that little hand and with every word he says, it reinforces the idea is a good one. He says; " Why don't you go to work for Poppa one day and let Poppa stay here and play with us; then nedder of you will get tired." Hmmmmm Sounds interesting I told him. But then...I asked: " Well what does Poppa do at work, I may not can do it?' He looks at me and tells me...all Poppa does is ride people in his truck, put papers on tree limbs and measures. He told me I could do that. Then he went to Poppa with his idea (of course I encouraged him to go tell him his great idea, Poppa should be in on these things ya know?) He repeated to Poppa what he told me, then Poppa asked.."Well, what does Nanny do, what type job does she have?" Alden without faltering or missing a step says ; "EASY PEEZY, you just sit and play on the computer all day!" 
Well..................I am so glad my day is so easy peezy! I wonder who does that laundry, cooks lunch, fold clothing, irons, cooks dinner, swims with the boys, plays checkers, WII, plays games, gets snacks, referees fights, reads, watches tons of cartoons, will that person please stand up, cuz I have the EASY PEEZY JOB OF SITTING AND PLAYING ON THE COMPUTER ALL DAY! hAHAHAH, Out of the mouth of babes!
