Spiderman Doesn't Take Medicine

Ryder has an answer (excuse) for everything.

Today he wanted to take a large NERF rifle to church.  When I told him absolutely not, he answered me with the tone of a teenager, "But Mommy, I'm not going to pull the trigger during church, I am just going to hold it on my lap!"  I explained that Father Rex did not allow weapons at mass - even if you don't pull the trigger.


This evening I wanted Ryder to take some decongestant before bed for his runny nose that has returned.  He was quick to correct me when I addressed him as "Ryder."  He was now dressed in his Spiderman pajamas, and, "Spiderman doesn't have to take medicine."
