You drive me crazy

This story is too funny not to share. The other day, I was taking the kids to school when out of nowhere Owen started telling me something. It went a little something like this...

Owen: "I was just thinking about something Daddy does that just drives me crazy."
Me: "what's what honey?"
Owen: "Like when it's late at night and I'm going to bed and I tell him something about God or something and he just talks too much! He just talks and talks and it's just too much. He just drives me crazy when he talks so much."
Me: "You think Daddy talks too much sometimes?"
Owen: "Yes he does."

So later, I was telling Daddy the story and laughing heartily and Owen, of course, piped in to correct me when i mis-quoted him. (It had to be exactly the right words or I got scolded). So Matt had a few questions for Owen about that...

Matt: "You think I talk too much?"
Owen:"Yes, at night when I'm trying to go to sleep and you just talk too much so you drive me crazy. You shouldn't talk about important things, just easy things like puzzles, the Dora puzzle, and toys. You should talk about toys. It just wastes my time when I'm trying to go to sleep."
Matt: "I just like it when you ask me about important things so I like to let you ask me questions so I can teach about things."
Owen: "YOU ARE JUST DRIVING ME CRAZY RIGHT NOW!"

HAHAHA. I've never heard him use that phrase before, but he clearly figured it out and had a valid use for it here. :) I laughed so hard trying to tell Matt that it was making Owen mad because he didnt think it was funny. :) I love my kids!
