Cael’s Greatest Hits

I had been saving a few choice Cael-isms up for a future post, or for use in another way, but it never happened for one reason or another.  So here is a list of some of Cael’s better moments.  To say that the kid has a gift is probably an understatement, he’s only 7 and regularly cracks us up.  So, without further ado, some raw unfiltered goodness from the man himself:

Cael on music:

There is no rock and roll in Arnprior, it’s just a bunch of singers and banjos.  A bunch of honey bunnies  and slow motion singers.

Cael on Arnprior, again (perhaps a tad harsh?)

Arnprior is just like a village where no one has water, like in Rango.

Cael once mentioned about how we don’t have cable TV anymore, and when he does get a chance to watch it there often doesn’t seem to be anything on…

Daytime television is just a bunch of “So Barbaras” (pronounce that phonetically and you get “soap operas”)

Cael on getting kisses from Nikki before leaving for school in the morning.

He comes flying into the bathroom doing some serious karate chopping and fancy footwork going Hiya! Hiya! and I laughed and he says, “I’m the LOVE NINJA! – here for my lovin’s”

Cael on how amazing his beautiful mom is:

You smell like when unicorns existed.  <looks around> Don’t tell anybody, it might get out of hand…

Cael after Trick-or-treating for little while, starts to feel a little tired and asks:

How long have we been hitting the sacks, anyway?

Cael on putting on his precious hockey team toque for the first time:

Ahh, it still has that new toque smell.

Cael got into trouble last year with his teacher, and she was going to punish him and call us to tell us about it.

Mrs. C – “I’m calling your mother”

Cael – “No, I’ll make you a deal”

Mrs. C – “Ok,”…..

Cael – “I’ll give you 50 pushups if you don’t call my mom”

Mrs. C - “I’m calling your mother”

…. and she did

Buddy, you are just the frigging best.  Don’t change one bit.  If you know one I have forgotten, by all means comment and remind me.

  1. Oh man, Courtney, that’s just awesome. I wish I had something to offer – I’m sure if I hung out with Cael more often I’d have loads of great quotes. And, after reading your posts about him, I am led to believe that Eyvi and Cael were separated at birth. My favourite recent discussion with Eyvi centered around Santa’s income. He asked how Santa survives — and remains obese — with little or no compensation. And where does he get the money to buy all those toys (“Because, really,” he said, “the days of his workshop are gone. No one wants those crappy wooden trains and floppy dolls. And he doesn’t make Xboxes and ipods with a hammer and a bunch of elves.”) Okay then. He didn’t accept my suggestion that people donate money to a Santa fund. He decided that maybe he does seasonal work — lawn care or what have you. Then he had a classic Eureka moment: Sponsorship. Future Shop, Wal-Mart, Zellers — you name it, they’re are all in cahoots with the big guy. They give him a few million dollars worth of goods and they make millions more as a result of all the free advertising (“Santa in your ad at Christmas time is HUGE”). Glad we squared that away.
