Tobin: Beethoven is my favorite. Do you know why he's my favorite?

One of my favorite Brandon-ism's was this conversation (he was about 8 or 9):

Mom - looking in rearview mirror at scrunched up face while Brandon drinks a Jamba Juice - Are you ok?

Brandon - BRAIN FREEZE! (pause) but only on half of my brain.

Mom - What about the other half?

Brandon - It's a bright, sunshiny day over there.
Still makes me laugh!!

So does that mean your birthday is sometime in March?!!!

Wow, golf skills and intelligence, that boy of yours is pretty amazing.

P.S. - I asked Olivia what she did in class today. The first thing she said was, "We didn't get to watch a movie!" ;)
