Here are a few tidbits for your amusement…..
We were preparing for Mass on Sunday when Dave said, “Maybe we’ll sing a Latin song.
Anna Grace said, “An Aladdin song?”
---------------------------------------
I was doing laundry (rare, I know) when I looked down and saw a suitcase in the laundry basket. Why? Was it in need of cleaning?
---------------------------------------
The little girls went with daddy to take Katie back to college. On the way home, they saw a blimp flying over the Georgia Dome. Why, I don’t know since the dome is, well, a dome. Anyhow. When asking Abby what they saw, she paused and said, “A bleep.”
---------------------------------------
When I was heading out to the store, Alex said he needed shampoo. “Oh, and mom? Get the kind with conditioner in it. The girl behind me in fourth block said my hair isn’t soft enough”. Huh. How does she know this? “She plays with my hair when I’m sleeping”.
---------------------------------------
Anna Grace got on the daycare bus headed for the after school program. The owner of the center said she overheard the following while driving….
“Hey Logan, my dad ate alligator. He said it tastes like chicken.”
Why? Was this the foremost thing in her mind???
---------------------------------------
Alex announced on the way home that he had a group Spanish project to do involving needing to create a video/dialogue for calling for first aid---all in Spanish. His group’s idea? To video tape Alex being hit by a car. Yep.
---------------------------------------
Coming home from school, we passed a hotel that is a mile or so from our house. Abby said, “Can we go to the hotel, mom?” Uh no. “But we never get to!” Well, we live here. “But we can still go! The hotel has beds and furniture just like our house.”
---------------------------------------
I was passing Anna Grace’s classroom and noticed the cute display on the door. The children had put brown footprints and black handprints to make reindeer. I commented to her teacher that it was adorable. Addressing Anna Grace, her teacher said, “Did mommy clean your foot really well last night?” AG said, “Nope, we didn’t even take a shower or a bath!”
---------------------------------------
Anna Grace came out of their room for a drink of water. Next thing I heard was, "Copycat is coming too, mom".......Abby was on her way.
---------------------------------------
Oh, and a mommy funny. I got to school and realized I had a huge hole in my sock. So I did the logical thing and stapled my sock shut. Doesn't that make sense to you???
More to come, I’m sure.

I love your wry wit. And your kids. Especially your kids.
I love this post! My favorite story is the one about the shampoo and being asleep in class. Something to look forward to with a teenage boy, I guess. My kids always want to stay in a hotel too, no matter how far or close it is to our house.
Your family keeps me laughing!
LOVE IT! I have used staples in my school nurse job. Had a kid that ripped his pants from ankle to mid thigh along the seam. Dad would not bring new ones, so I stapled his pants together! He was a 6th grader and thought it was so cool. :)
