Along with my *witty* husband, I have 3 little movie-quoters in my Trenches. The latest and greatest is the movie Elf: "I'm in a store and I'm singgggggggggg-ing!" "You're not Santa. You smell like beef and cheese." .-= Trenches of Mommyhood´s last blog ..You Get What You Pay For (Related: I Am a Cheapskate) =-.

What is it with men and movie quotes? My husband doesn't do it (thank goodness) but all of my male friends could spend hours reciting movie quotes...weird. .-= Alex´s last blog ..Memoir Monday... =-.

What is with men quoting the movies caddy shack and stripes? My husband does this constantly also. He was mortified when we were first dating that I never even saw either of those. My son does the same thing to me. He and his twin sister are in second grade. I can't get her to stop telling me every little detail of her day and I can't get him to say more than good. Let me know if you can crack the code! .-= ~Laura´s last blog ..THETA Mom =-.

Yes, that is how it is. I guess I’m used to it now, being in the dark about the going-ons at school. Because when I get around any of their girl friends, OMG, they drive me crazy, why are they telling me every tiny detail of their day?!?

Like I said, I guess I’m used to the lack of boy communication.

My son’s new favorite movie quote is from Polar Express, “I didn’t do it, I didn’t do it”…..I’m finding it terribly annoying.

My son won’t give any details about kindergarten (or about pre-k last year). He likes school, but I can’t get anything out of him besides ‘it was good’, or ‘we played’.

When Joey first started 3K I used to dig and dig for details about his day and he would never tell me anything. He didn’t want to talk about it either. I couldn’t understand it because I knew he LOVED school. Why wouldn’t he want to talk about it?

Then it was my turn to be the helper for his class and I immediately understood. There was so much hussle and bussle going on in that classroom that I don’t think I sat still for a minute. And neither did the kids. They bounced from one activity to the next. I was exhausted at the end of the day and when I got home the hubby said, “Well, how did it go? Tell me about your day.” And I said, “I don’t want to talk about it.”
