Hey!!! Guys!!!!

So, the Impossible Son walked into the kitchen a few minutes ago, nose up in the air, sniffing intently.  "Mama," he said reverently.  "What are you making? It smells so GOOD!"

I smiled from where I was cleaning the counter.  "What does it smell like I'm making?"

He sniffed hard, I mean... I could literally see the end of his nose QUIVERING, he was sniffing so hard.  And he FROWNED, just analyzing it and thinking and then he said, "Ginger cookies?"

"No... but it has ginger in it."

He sniffed again and moved closer to the stove.  "Oh, I don't know, can't you just TELL me?" he begged, his little face all wrinkled up with anxiety.

"It's pumpkin pie," I said, trying not to laugh.

His eyes got big, and he jumped straight up.  "WOOOO-HOOOOO!!!!"  and then he raced out of the kitchen and out the front door to where the Impertinent Daughter was playing with their friends.  "HEY!!! HEY, GUYS!!!" he shouted.  "Mama's making PUMPKIN PIE!!!!  YAAAAAAAY!!!!!!"  and he started jumping up and down on the porch, doing a little "oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah," dance.  

I guess he's really excited about that pumpkin pie!
