"Mama," my eight-year-old son said. "Everybody in this family seems to have a problem."
I tried not to laugh. "Oh yeah, Bubba? What kind of problems?"
"Schultz (our German Shepherd) is always dirty."
I nodded. "Can't argue with that!"
"My sister is a drama queen."
Yep.
"Daddy doesn't have time to walk Schultz. And I'm always hungry."
"What's my problem?" I asked.
"You're losing your mind!"
Oy!
Ouch! Best not forget to make him some dinner!
ReplyDeleteThat would be bad! :)
DeleteI have a problem, but I can't remember what it is. Oh, yeah! I'm becoming old and forgetful.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Haha! So you're losing your mind, too? ;)
DeleteGuess you have a good excuse for not fixing dinner. You forgot. : )
ReplyDeleteHa! Do you think he'd buy it?
DeleteHah! Talk about being blunt! You can always scare him by saying it's hereditary, so he'll be losing his mind next. XD
ReplyDeleteHaha! Yes, I'll tell him he'll be just like me in another 30 years!
DeleteDon't feel bad. My daughter told me, "Mom, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but writers are lame." Later that night, she asked this lame writer to edit a paper for her. ;)
ReplyDeleteHa! Writers can't be that lame then!
DeleteAh, well, he doesn't mince his words, does he?
ReplyDeleteHe tells it like he sees it!
Deletehaha at least he's honest. Maybe you can task him with finding you a new mind?
ReplyDeleteI think its adrift in outer space somewhere. I'm not sure anyone will be able to find it. :)
DeleteHaha! Maybe you can use that to your advantage. I like Susanne's idea!
ReplyDeleteYeah. I can get grounded again and have more practice time!
DeleteFrom the mouths of babes.....lol....very cute :)
ReplyDeleteMy boy cracks me up!
DeleteI agree with Susanne's suggestion and then you can get grounded again. :) Woohoo :)
ReplyDeleteYes! And getting grounded is a good thing!
DeleteThis is the cutest collection of problems I've heard of!
ReplyDeleteYou are cracking me up! A cute collection of problems? Too funny!
DeleteA mind i a terrible thing to waste, but without one, no waste, so you're ahead of the game.
ReplyDeleteHa! At least I have a good excuse if I do something brainless!
DeleteLOL - is he intuitive or just trying to get you to buy some more groceries??
ReplyDeleteHaha! I think it's a little of both!
DeleteWell, at least if you're "losing" your mind, it's not all gone yet. *wink*
ReplyDeleteHa! But it's close!
DeleteLol! Who is without problems? Everyone has problems!
ReplyDeleteI certainly haven't met anyone who doesn't have problems!
Delete*LOL* Your son is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteHe's a crazy little man!
DeleteBubba has such insight for a little man. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing, isn't it?
Deletewow he is honest to a fault huh---;)
