We bought one of the new thermometers that you swipe across the forehead. This is from the Instruction Manual.



How many parents seriously need to be reminded of this?

Say Huh?

"Why does my lemonade taste like lemonade?"
---Princess

Say Huh?

Conversation when Princess arrived home from school today:
Princess: "We got to watch the Principal of the United States on TV!"
Mom: "Really? What did he say?"
Princess: "That we should stay at school."

Conversation when Daddy arrived home from work today:
Daddy: "What did you do at school today?"

This little piggy.....

This evening:

Princess: Do you know why we have 5 toes?
Me: Nope, why?
P: The big one is the daddy toe, next is the mommy toe, then the Al toe, then me, then the little baby brother toe.

Say Huh?

This "Say Huh?" is just TOOOO BIG to stick over in the side bar:

As I sit down in Gman's room to read him a bedtime story, I notice that several of the race car wall decals are missing from his wall.

Me (in stern mother voice): Gman, where are all of your race car stickers?
G: What? (looks at the wall and starts SOBBING his head off)
G (yelling/crying): Where's all my race cars?!
Note to self....he clearly had nothing to do with it.
Princess walks in.
G ( still yelling/crying): What you do to my stickers?
Princess (very matter-of-factly): I hate yellow. I threw away all the ones that had yellow on them.

WHAT ON EARTH WOULD POSSESS HER TO DO THAT!?!?!?
