The jokester

O. is my comedian.  She tries and tries and tries to tell us jokes, and she just thinks she's the best at telling jokes ever!  Here's a sample of her hilarity!

What did the cucumber say to the other cucumber?  -  Good luck!

What do you call a chicken in the street?  - chicken street

What do you call elephant boogers?  - hair gel

Why did the pickle cross the road?  - to go see the other pickle.

I hope you have had your laugh today!  ;D

Are you kidding?!

Today I am making cards, and I'm working w/ my cuttlebug.  I have my die and the paper, and the sandwich I need to get the paper through to cut my swirl die out.  I got up from my desk to write something down, and E. dropped everything on the floor.  When I said her name exasperatingly, she said, "Are you kidding? What?  Shhh!"  That was NOT said in the correct context, but it's so funny that she said that!  Her little eyebrows were knit together and it was such a teenage look!  Like, how dare you call me on the fact that I did something I wasn't supposed to?!

Playing "chest"

This weekend, my husband introduced the game of chess to our son.  He loves it now and after just an evening of playing, was able to explain the game to me perfectly!  Well, I was teasing him yesterday about playing chess, and he said, "I love chest and I have feelings too!"  I cracked right up!  He has been calling it "chest" instead of chess!  LOL!

Today, my youngest was in the backseat as we left school, and she was whining and carrying on, and I said, "What is wrong w/ you?" and she replied, "I'm not sure!!!!!"  She's only 2!  How does she know those words?!

Praying

A couple weeks ago, my son started whining and complaining about going to church.  I told him, "Listen, do you like all the toys that you have?  All the clothes that you wear, the food that you eat, the house that you have?  How about how smart you are?  Do you think you got that on your own?  God gave that to you.  God gave everything to you.  And do you know what He asks for in return?  ONE HOUR!  Do you think you can handle that?!"

Well, after that, J. has been praying quite often!  He prayed for my husband to come home from his meeting.  And he did!  LOL!  J. was so surprised that his prayer worked!  And then tonight I had a church meeting, and was coming home in the rain.  Well, J. prayed that God would put a shield all around my car and keep me safe and dry all the way home.  And he prayed that I would come home safe and sound.

I guess my little tirade worked!  Now he prays and his prayers are answered every time!  He's a true believer!

Whatever, Mom! Ok?!

This evening, I prepared Chicken Marsala.  The directions say to pound the chicken before breading and frying.  I laid it on the table and started pounding out my agression!  I had a crappy day today, so this was the perfect outlet!

As I was pounding away, E. came strolling in, took one look at what I was doing and yelled, "WHATEVER!  WHATEVER, MOM!"  and ran into the toy room!  For absolutely no reason!
