After much contemplation on a blog worthy story I give you the 2008 version of
Oedipus.
Sam, "Mom shut your phone."
Me "Why do you want me to shut my phone Sam," (I was looking at Chris' picture)
Sam, "Because I'm the dad, now shut the phone."
I should interject that Sam has been pretending for some time that he is "The Dad." When ever I talk about Chris Sam tells me, "No daddy isn't the dad, I am."
This conversation was followed by
Sam (holding his tool box) "I'm going to work now."
He then got on his trike and rode away. Seconds later he came back pronouncing to me
"I'm home from work now make me a cheese sandwich."
56 days till Chris comes home.
He survived the Taliban, I only hope he can survive Samuel.

Oh dang he is so cute and so grown up! I hope you can have a Merry Christmas even with Chris gone. Thank you for your sacrifice.
Ha ha! "Now make me a cheese sandwich." Too funny. Reminds me of when Jim used to tease me by saying, "Now make me some pie!"
56 days! That's totally doable!
SWEET! we're in the homestretch baby! now make me a sandwich!
Kinda funny we all have different numbers..
That is funny. Hopefully he'll let me be the Dad again when I come home. :)
Little scary. Better watch out, Chris. That picture is so sweet.
Sam, you're a hoot!
That is a funny story! Glad you have a dad there while chris is gone.
