Being the youngest in the family has its advantages and disadvantages.  When you’re the little guy, sometimes you need to take special measures to make yourself heard.

While Jake and Derek were working on their history quiz, Peter and Jeremy were playing cars and legos.  Jeremy needed help opening a box.  Rather than ask in his normal voice, he found a megaphone to project his voice to ensure that he would be heard.

This is what I saw as he pointed the megaphone straight at me and asked, “Mom, you open dis formee?”  The poor little guy had to wait until I was finished with my fit of giggling.
