Just for laughs

So yesterday Gabe had a rough day. I don't say this because he got in trouble, or was sick, but because he had some personal issues... again.
.
We were getting ready for church, and down the hallway I hear Gabe exclaim,
.
"Oooooh! My butt jus' wiggled!"
.
He then said to Amanda very earnestly,
.
"Amanda, what does that mean when your butt wiggles?"
.
I couldn't help but snicker and try to get him to expand on this to see if he would say anything else that would make me love him any more than I already do... (he didn't disappoint)
.
"Gabe, come here... What did you say?"
.
He came to me and said again, seriously, "My BUTT jus' WIGGLED!"
.
I said, trying to match his dead-serious tone, "It just... WIGGLED?... all by itself??"
.
Exasperated at this point, he said,
.
"YEEESSSSS, it WIGGLED!..." and taking his finger and wiggling his eyelid really fast said, "like when your EYES wiggle!!"
.
**SIGH!**
**********
Then, as we were headed to the doors of the church, Gabe's shoulders slumped and his head dropped back, and dragging his knuckles on the ground with bended knees, moaned to the heavens for EVERYONE around to hear...
.
"OOOOOH, we do this EVERY TIIIIIIIIME!"
.
Sorry little man, I feel your pain, but it's called
.
Being A Mormon.
.
Let me know how you handle it when your kids do the same thing...
I couldn't help but laugh.

Your Gabe is a character...I'm curious about what made his butt wiggle. I'm afraid mine wiggles everytime I move but I am sure that he does not have my problem.

How is your little one doing? I send my best to all
