Octopus

Some days I truly wonder were Jacob gets some of his phrases. As quick witted as they can be sometimes, I know it's not something he just came up with on his own..could it? Where he heard this one, no one will know.

Me: "Jacob grab your backpack, here take your coat, and don't forget to grab your art project. Can you hold the door for Jeffrey?"

Jacob: (with a stern look and his hands on hips) "Come on MOM! What do you think I am? and Octopus?

He remembered that an Octopus had eight arms! I'm so proud. Maybe next time when he rambling off all the things HE needs, I will remind him, that I too am not an octopus.
