JCK: What were you two playing outside?
GIRL: Baby.
BOY: I told you that two times, Mommy.
JCK: You did? I'm sorry, I don't remember.
BOY: You don't have a very good brain.
***********************************************
BOY: You said we could watch that silly movie after dinner.
Loooong Pause...........
GIRL: Sometimes people don't keep their promises.
JCK: O.K. O.K., I keep my promises.

I think it's time BOY and GIRL learn the fine distinction between a promise and a prediction. Mothers are in the business of prediction, because we've learned to predict that things will certainly arise to derail promises.
ReplyDeletewait till they tell you those pants make our butt look fat....
ReplyDeleteHeh. I hate it when they remember that you promised to let them watch a ridiculous movie.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I don't have a very good brain, either.
ReplyDeleteKids and their honesty, huh?! This week the girls I watch told me 1. I have really big feet. 2. Maybe I could get a job mashing potatoes with my feet.
ReplyDeleteHey, if the pay is good, I'd consider it.
ha! but I like your brain....
ReplyDelete*huge laugh*
ReplyDeleteOoops! That's a wake up call, Mommy....
My brain broke a long time ago, and my daughter melted part of what was left of it this month.
ReplyDeleteoh well.
Why do they remember that they MIGHT get to watch a silly movie 4 hours after you said it, but they can't remember to stop hitting each other 5 minutes later?
