Friday, Michael was away babysitting. When we were putting Derek to bed he asked, "Mom, where did you put Michael?"

Derek-isms

These are all from today:

• Why is there an "ick" in my name?
• Why are all the people that live in Pasco and Costco and Mount Rainer our cousins and neighbors and friends?
• I like grandmas better than bad guys. (He said this after I told him Grandma Johnson was coming tomorrow.)

Sometimes I have a hard time understanding this kid.
