Thanks for a good giggle! I think my husband wrote that last one...sounds like something he would come up with!!

I like the one where the stranger might have to guess if two people are married based on whether they are yelling at the same kids. This is definitely my favorite, although I really got a great laugh out of the last one and the explaining of all the kids.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! It was fun to read and laugh with your tonight.
Blessed be God Forever,

ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot--Thank you, I needed that! We should ask kids about how they see the world more often.
ReplyDeleteLOL!! Thanks for sharing Cathy.
ReplyDeleteFunny! Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL! Especially at #3, 7, and 9! I just love the world from a kid's eye view! Thanks for the giggle today!
ReplyDeleteEven if she looks like a dump truck . . . oh my, that's really funny.
ReplyDeleteBut now I'm paranoid. Now every time my husband or boys tell me I look nice, I'm going to have them clarify that point by asking, "How, exactly, do I look nice?"
these are great:)
ReplyDeleteThese are really funny. Thanks for posting this. It is early in the morning here and no one is awake at my house, I had to stifle the laughs.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff!
ReplyDeletebah! this is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThis is great, and it's one I've never seen before! Gotta pass it on! Hope you enjoy your time with your mom. She looks like a wise woman, but she has a little intriguing twinkle in her eye...must be the Irishness?
ReplyDeleteHow funny! Don't you just love the openness of kids?
