Tonight, while we were cleaning the kitchen, Katie was being silly about something and Cyrus said "Holy Cow! The coo coo bird really isn't extinct! I have one living in my house!" Of course she countered with, "No Dad! YOU are the coo coo bird." Then Cyrus said, "Bah, you are a coo coo bird, and I am going to call the Bureau of Extinct Birds and tell them Coo Coos are not really extinct, and I have one living at my house." Katie then said, "No, YOU are the stinky bird." It kind of stuck. All night daddy was the stinky bird!

So funny! I could totally hear Cyrus' voice in that dialog as I read it. He is such a fun dad to those kids! He reminds me of my dad how he always lovingly teased us when we were growing up. There's something special about a little girl and daddy's bond.
Poor Cyrus! You just need Sam to be a little older, so you can talk with him instead. Boys never get into these kinds of arguments. They just hit you with a tonka truck or any other nearby object. Sounds bad, but at least you aren't known as "stinky bird" for the rest of your life. . . .
