I talked about how sweet my boys are?

These were my conversations with them yesterday:
Me: Ian, will you grab your shoes from the car?
Ian: Never. Never. Never, never, never never never!
Me: Really?
Ian: If you tell me to I will disobey.
Me: James, go to sleep.
James: No (growled loudly), No, No (growled loudest)!
Happy New Year to me.
