Guess what!

My son (Joseph) was talking to an adult friend of the family.

Joseph:  “Guess what I did!”

Andrew:  “What?”

Joseph:  “I stuck my head in the toilet and flushed it!”

Andrew:  “You gave yourself a ‘swirly’?  I’m not sure how to separate the bully from the victim in this scenario…”

An Embarrassing Moment

We went to one of those warehouse stores, and I bought a huge container of dill weed.  When we were walking through the checkpoint at the exit, my son held up the container of dill weed and said loudly, “Mommy, did you remember to pay for your GRASS?”

The man at the checkpoint almost fell over laughing.  He took the container from my son and held it up in the air.  He turned to all the people in line behind me and said, “Her son wants to know if she remembered to pay for her GRASS?”

Southern Logic

My inlaws are about as Southern as they come.  (OK, I admit it – I am, too!)

My husband’s younger brother has been called “Peanut” since the day he was born.  One day, my mother-in-law called to tell me that we weren’t going to call him “Peanut” anymore.  She said, “I just think it’s a little silly to call a 30-year-old man ‘Peanut.’”  I couldn’t really argue with the logic, so I said, “Okay, what are we going to call him?”

She said, “Now we are going to call him ‘BUBBA.’”

(That is so much better, don’t ya think?)

Wanna trade?

When I was growing up, my dad would always say, “I wouldn’t trade you for a horse and $100.”  So I’ve started saying that to my kids.  I think it is backfiring, though.

I said to my 5-year-old, “I wouldn’t trade you for a horse and $100.”  He said, “I would trade you.  I’d just take the $100.”
