Ever since we implemented the even-day/odd-day system the boys have been obsessed with the date. On odd days, Archie goes first for everything– first to get his teeth brushed, first to choose a book to read, etc. Carter has the even days.
Archie and Kevin were sitting on the couch, getting ready for teeth-brushing.
Archie: What day is it? What day is it? What day is it? (stops briefly to breathe)
Kevin: It’s the first day of the rest of your life.
Archie: (long pause) Monday?

We really need to find our video recorder. The innocent but wise expression on Archie’s face when he said, “Monday?” was priceless.
Dude, your kids are kings of one-liners. Get them on tape pronto.
As a “bonus exercise”, someone should count how many odd and how many even dates there are in a year. (You might be surprised ;-).
