Moments With Cam

Recently I was playing cowboys with Cam, so naturally he costumed me properly with a hat, bandana and gun. He was dressed similarly...of course he had the boots, a holster and spurs.... so he was way cooler looking than Mimi was, but I was clearly the junior cowboy that day so he deserved the coolness. He has memorized lines from movies and Tombstone has some of the best cowboy lines, so he was totally in character as Curly Bill and re-enacting a scene from the movie, when he suddenly broke character and looked at me with his little index finger raised and said "He says sunnabitch, but I don't say sunnabitch, cause it's a bad word."

We all have different nicknames for Cam. Camboy and Camtater are two of the names I call him. So today when I called him Camtater, he answered me "Yes, Mimitater. (laughs hysterically at his own joke) I CALLED YOU MIMITATER!" 

We also visited The Sword in the Stone. The movie was playing so Cam stuck one of his swords (It was a Deadpool sword so clearly it was not Excalibur worthy, but who am I to crush a kid?) into the couch cushions and pretended to try to pull his sword from the stone.  When he couldn't I told him he must not have been pure of heart. As I am walking over to take a turn at pulling out the sword my son says "Pure of heart? Well you sure as hell aren't going to have any luck."   Sarcasm is strong in my family.

My favorite moment was when Cam pulled my hand to rest on his cheek and said "You're beautiful."
