40 Hours




"40 hours."

This is Ben's favorite unit of measure these days. We have no idea where this idea got lodged in his mind, especially since Mark's job is not a forty hour, nine to five job.

It is amusing to hear it pop up in multiple settings.

Going in to get him after a restless nap time:
"Did you have a good nap?"
"Oh, yeah. Sleep 40 hours."

Taking Clara's temperature when she was sick:
"Mommy, it says she's 40 hours."

Stepping on the scale:
"I weigh 40 hours!"

Getting ready for church:
"Want to go to church 40 hours."

Love him.
