Thanks to everyone who left a comment during the 'Tis More Blessed giveaway. Helena is the lucky winner! There will be two more chances in December to win, so be sure to stop by this Friday for another opportunity.
Now for the story.
My nine-year-old son, Bubba, hasn't been feeling well. He wanted me to take his temperature.
"Sorry, Bubba," I said. "All the thermometers in the house are broken." I felt his forehead. "You feel okay. Maybe it's just a cold."
"No, Mama. I have a fever." He stuck his finger in his mouth.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
He held up his other finger, indicating that I should wait. When he was done, he pulled out his finger and looked at it. "Just what I thought. 99.9 degrees. I have a fever."
"A finger thermometer?"
He nodded. "Yep. They're the best kind!"
LOL What will he think of next? :)
ReplyDeleteOnly Bubba would come up with something like that!
DeleteAs long as the finger Thermometer stays oral....;)
ReplyDeleteOMG! I don't even know what to say to that! ;0)

DeleteHopefully the finger thermometer only lingers in the mouth haha

DeleteCONGRATS to Helena!
ReplyDeleteI hope Bubba is feeling better. I think I'll stick with my forehead thermometer. : )
That's the kind I like!
DeleteCongrats to Helena - she is a double winner.

DeleteFinger in the mouth works for wind direction . . .

DeleteLeave it to Bubba to think of a finger thermometer! Hope he's feeling better now and congrats to Helena for being the winner.

ReplyDeleteThere are more and more online casinos available right now. These are great because they allow us to gamble when we want and wherever we want to.
