****CONVERSATION WITH A 6 YEAR OLD ABOUT THE RULES OF SOFTBALL****

"How come Cody got to go to first base? She didn't hit the ball."
"She walked."
"No, she didn't,"
"Yes, she did."
"No, she didn't, she jogged."

With 3 kids and 61 games between them.....it's a LONG season!

Did I Hear That Right?

Kids are a scream. No,I mean a real SCREAM! And everyday I hear things that make me say, "WHAT?" So I've decided to compile a list of some of my real HEAD SPINNERS. My head spins daily, so I'll probably be adding to this section often! If you have any you'd like to submit, leave 'em when you sign my guestbook.

1. Untie your sister!
2. Is that my toothbrush in the toilet?
3. Mom, Dad's driving down the road and Hunter's tied the lawn- chairs to his back bumper!
4. Mom, there's a snake under the table! (AND THERE WAS!)
5. Mom, there's a goat on top of the car! (got pictures of that one!)
6. Is that my sweater in the toilet?
7. Son, you wear Batman underwear UNDER your pants, not OVER your pants! No, people will notice!
8. Uncle John--> "I've got the body of a young man!"
His son, Jay-->"Well, you better give it back. You're wrinkling it!"
9. Said to my five year old, Taylor Paige--->"GO UPSTAIRS AND GO TO BED!" Her reply, "I can't Mom, I'm afraid of heights."
10. Taylor Paige has grace mixed up with her nightime prayers and at dinner she blesses everyone and everything. One night we had company for dinner, "Uncle Lloyd". Taylor Paige was saying grace and was going around the table saying, "I love Mommy, I love Daddy, I love Cody, I love Hunter...................... (there was a long pause).....I LIKE Uncle Lloyd, I love Spike" We could hardly contain ourselves through the rest of grace.
11. I was doing laundry and had emptied out a BIG wad of lint from the lint trap and threw it in the trash. Later Paige picked it out of the trash and exclaimed "Was this in Daddy's bellybutton!!!!!!?"

Gene was sitting out on the back steps (and was awlfully bad to keep his fingers out of his mouth). I looked out and could only see that his hands were up toward his face, I yelled out and said, "Gene, get your fingers out of your mouth!" He very politely informed me in his own baby language "mine not got mine fingers in mine mouth, mine got mine fingers in mine nose!"

Gene had never had link sausage before, and when I fixed his plate and put it in front of him, all I had was a link sausage (I thought he could finish that while I was finishing up the eggs) his eyes got as big as saucers, he pushed his plate back and looked startled and said "OOHH Mudder (his way of pronouncing Mother) somebody shoo-shooed in me plate!"

After putting her children to bed, a mother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin. At last she threw a towel around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she heard her three- year-old say with a trembling voice, "Who was that?"

A middle school in Oregon was faced with a unique problem. A number of girls were beginning to use lipstick and press their lips to the mirrors leaving dozens of little lip prints.

Finally, the principal decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the custodian. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every day. To demonstrate how difficult it was to clean the mirrors, she asked the custodian to clean one of the mirrors.

He proceeded to take out a long-handled brush, dip it into the nearest toilet and scrub the mirror.

Since then there have been no lip prints on the mirror.

When my youngest son (now 24) was five years old, we were on a trip in the car and he was in the back seat playing with his "Speak & Spell". The box said "Can you spell poultry - p-o-u-l-t-r-y?" I ask my said if he knew what poultry was and he said "Yes, it's poems!"
Living in Sussex County, Delaware (home of the first chicken house and the poultry industry) makes me really appreciate this one! Thanks, Cookie!
