Phone Conversations Overheard At My House

Bram is our 4 year old. He is a pistol. Let's just say he can be a handful sometimes. He's very energetic. All. The. Time. And can talk smack like the big boys. But if someone calls his bluff he comes running to Mommy. Ha!

My younger brother, Brandon (who is the classic, awesome pick-on-you uncle and goes by Uncle B) called my cell phone last week. Bram happened to be playing a game on my phone and answered. This is the conversation that ensued.

Bram: Who's this! (loud and aggressive)

Uncle B: Who's this?

Bram: It's Bram.

Uncle B: Hi Bram.

Bram: Who's!! This!! (louder and more aggressive)

Uncle B: Boy! It doesn't matter who this is. If you don't stop talking to me like that I'm going to come kick your butt!

Bram: I'll kick your butt! (Not backing down)

Uncle B: That's it, I'm coming to kick your butt!

Bram: You can't! It's dark! (So tough)

Uncle B: Yes I can!

Bram: Uh-uh, you don't know which way to turn! (confident and sure of himself)

Uncle B: Yes I do. I've been to your house before.

At this point Bram realized he may have gotten himself into trouble and ran to me with the phone, half scared, half giggling.

Bram: Mommy!! Someone's on the phone and he says he's going to come kick my butt!!

He didn't say one word about his part in the scenario. I know it was onery of him. But I couldn't help but laugh. I LOVE that kid!!
