JJJ aka: Depends on my mood.
What I love:He looks good in a cowboy hat or a business suit and wears them both daily. But not together, that would be creepy.
Hobbies: Building furniture, remodeling homes, playing sports with our kids, laughing with me. Seriously. does this wacky thing when he is giving the boys a lecture.  He makes up words and gets his phrases all mixed up. It's a mental defect.  Some crazy crap flies out of his mouth.  He can't help himself and it complicates things.  Do you know how hard it is not to laugh when someone is in the midst of a long winded speech about how you need to improve something or other and a made up word pops out of their mouth?  

For example a while back he was giving KeenanKeenan aka: Kman
Age: 14
"Special" Qualities: Door slamming, stomping and eye rolling (can do it all in one impressive motion).
Best Qualities: The softest kindest heart, hysterical and quite charming when he tries. a lecture on being a little more humble and not saying things to his friends like, "I am better at everything than you."  He finished his diatribe with these words of wisdom, "Keenan you really need to practice some humbility." What the hell is humbility? 

Keenan's face was hysterical.  He had that smile, frown, smile, frown thing going.  I had to walk out of the room and a testament to that kid's strength is that  he held it together until he got downstairs to his own room.  I could hear the muffled laughter of him guffawing into a pillow.  I'm fairly certain his bed was shaking.

The other day NoahNoah aka: Mac Daddy
Age: 12
"Special" Qualities: Holds a grudge for longer than you can remember the offense. Talks nonstop
Best Qualities: Wakes up with a smile every day and walks to the beat of his own drum. was asking us if we would buy him a yacht or a porsche or something equally ridiculous.  Seriously that kids requests are ridiculous.  J, fed up with his 'can I haves' and lack of gratitude, stepped up on his platform and began the 'do you understand the value of money' speech. He ended with this sentence, "While you boys have been sitting around playing video games every day this summer, I am out their humping my butt off."  Hmmmm.  Humping my butt off. 

In a house of boys, the word hump (or balls, fart, penis, etc.)  is enough to bring everyone to their knees with laughter. You throw in the seriousness of the conversation and J's tendency to do these things.  Wow.  We were crying tears, all of us, including J.

I guess the moral is this.  If he had been practicing some humbility, then he wouldn't have been bragging about humping his butt off.
