Every other Monday is a bit louder than usual at my house. I watch two different three year old boys for two friends and excitement is sure to follow. So as if I didn't have enough on my hands, just before Parker left for school yesterday he came to me in all seriousness and had the following conversation with me.
"Mom, would you babysit my stuffed animals today for me?"
"Umm, sure Parks."
"Well they take naps at one o'clock and eat lunch at two o'clock."
"Okay but hon, you usually feed kids lunch and then they take their naps."
"Well then they eat at one o'clock and take their naps at two o'clock."
"How much are you paying me Parker?"
"Nine."
"Nine what?"
"Nine coins mom."
"Like nine pennies? (He nods his head.) Okay it's a deal. I'll babysit for you today."
You can be sure I made him pay up last night too. That puppy barked all day long and the dinosaur and teddy fought constantly. Not sure it was really worth "nine." ;)

That is so CUTE! I just love that he wanted you to watch his stuffed animals. It is so something Parker would do. I just LOVE that kid.
You should have sent those animals outside with the boys, do you think he would have been mad if they got dirty? =) Cute post, Parker is so funny.
That was so cute. Love,Alexia
Parker is just the cutest. What a thoughtful boy to ask you to care for his animals and then to offer to pay you for your services. Just adorable Grandma Wells
I could not stop laughing when Parker said this. I tried really hard to not laugh while he was there so he would not get imbarrased. So cute. I love them
