Connor's Priorities

Trinity: "We are supposed to love God first and others second."

Connor: "Well, I love...1. God, then 2. Jesus, 3. mom, 4. cinnamon rolls, and 5. dad.

Trinity: "You love cinnamon rolls more than dad??"

Connor: "Yeah" (with that "duh" intonation)

Connor:

I wish I could marry Fiona. She is just such a beautiful girl.

But that's against the law.

Allan and Connor convos

A: Connor, go inside - it's time to eat!
C: Does it involve jam?

A: Connor, go upstairs and put on a t-shirt, please.
C: Why can't I just wear... nakedness?

Rules? I Don't Need No Stinkin' Rules!

My cousin, while babysitting our kids, was trying to talk to Connor about their house rule of putting things away after playing with them. It didn't seem to be going over for some reason, so she asked, "Don't you have any rules in your house?" Connor, in all seriousness: "No, we don't have any rules at home."

Set Up The Pins!

Connor: Mom, you know when there's thunder? That's God bowling. It's when the pins get knocked down. And the lightening? That's when God gets a strike. Get it? The lightening strikes when God gets a strike!

Mom: That's funny, Connor!

[pause]

Connor: It's not funny mom. It's for real.

Covering All the Angles

Connor: Mom, I am never going out in the heat again! Why can't they move PSP [PUMP Summer Program] to another time? It could be in the spring; then it could still be PSP. I'm serious!

Who's Your Next President?

Connor: Mom, who's the President right now?

Mom: Trinity, do you know?

Trinity: George Bush

Mom: But in November we'll elect a new president.

Connor: OH GOOD! Then Obama will be our president! Is he the president of Oregon or the United States?...

Mom to Trinity: Don't you think about kissing a boy until you're...16. Connor interrupts: Mom, say 60! Say 60!

Connor to friends while they are playing superheroes: I thought of a new person: Florida Jones!

Mom to kids: Today is Earth Day - what should we do to celebrate? Connor: Buy me a train!! Hmmm...not sure that will help our carbon footprints, son.
