Hanson--I mean, Jonas Brothers--look out!

Our rock star son turned 3 today. He actually asked for drums for his birthday. He announces to complete strangers, "Hey. Me totally awesome. Me super cool. Me gonna be in a rock band." (The grammarian in Jack cringes everytime S insists on using "me" instead of "I")

Lately he has been chatting non-stop about playing bass guitar (I'm not even sure where he heard that word, let alone repeating it properly), and being a rock star when he gets bigger. With his haircut (or lack thereof), he is on his way... Jack joined the band today as he couldn't resist the rockers plea to "Stay home from work dad and come to my party!" Big fat yay for vacation days.

It is our first time having to throw an inside bday because of snow outside (and brothers with summer bdays) which limits both how many you can invite, as well as what you can do with the parachute. Turns out, not many, and not much.
Happy Rock Star Birthday S!

I guess that helps explain what S said several weeks ago while subbing in nursery. Here are some of S's comments to me...

I am totally cool! (What he said to me after giving him his snack.)

That is totally cool. Totally awesome! (His response to my statement that we were going into the other room for a lesson.)

It sounds like you may need to ask the nursery leaders to give lessons on how to stay humble while still living the life of a famous rocker.

I loved the title...it made me belly laugh!

Happy Birthday to your ROCK STAR!!!

I loved the quotes! There's nothing wrong with a healthy self-esteem. If you are totally awesome you have to make sure everyone knows it!
