Huh?

Have you ever had someone half asleep tell you something completely nonsensical? I'm told I once slept-walked out into the family room and started arguing with my family about them needing to give me quarters. And Theo often talks in his sleep, but we usually can't make out what he's saying. However, the other day he fell asleep after music class, and I couldn't rouse him to eat dinner. He had wet himself by then, so I needed to get his pants off and get him into a bedtime diaper. I managed to half-rouse him enough to do that, and he looked at me blearily, then narrowed his eyes and commanded, "DON'T say 'Oh my god,' Mommy! Just press the buttons on the remote and USE NICE WORDS today!"

I have no idea what that was about, but I thought it was funny that he was scolding me for taking the Lord's name in vain. I don't make a habit of that, but I'm sure I do say it on a somewhat regular basis. I had no idea Theo didn't think those were "nice words!"
