My son's political career has begun.
"Mama," he said when he got off the bus yesterday. "I have to write a speech."
"Oh yeah?" I asked. "What for?"
"I'm running for student council."
"I see. That's terrific! What are you going to say in your speech?"
He thought about that for a second. "I'm going to say that everyone needs to eat pie. And I'm going to give everyone free pie!"
Great. With a promise like that, I'm sure he'll be elected President. I'd better get in the kitchen and start baking!
Oh, he can already tell the way to get someone's attention is with food. He's got my vote.
ReplyDeleteFrom the looks of these responses, I'd say he has everyone's vote!
DeleteI love free pie. He has my vote!
ReplyDeleteThat's one sweet promise he's made!
DeleteCan I put in a request for Apple pie...with a scoop of ice cream? He has my vote.
ReplyDeleteOne apple pie a la mode coming up!
DeleteHe has my vote too!.. Sounds like hes definitely got potential with offers like that
ReplyDeleteHe knows how to work the crowd!
DeleteChocolate pie with meringue, please. Exactly the way my mom made it. I'll get the recipe to you. And, oh yeah, VOTE FOR BUBBA!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Send over the recipe and I'll make it!
DeleteAnd where does the money come for those free pies. Oh wait, I know!!!
ReplyDeleteThe money grows on trees. Everyone knows that! ;0)
DeleteThe words free and pie will give him the win
ReplyDeleteSounds like a vote for Bubba's mom!
ReplyDeleteYay me!
DeleteI agree- you better stop baking. Everyone wants pie. :)

I'm on it. We just picked ten pounds of apples, so I'm ready!
DeleteSeems interesting. Start baking for he will win. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm counting on it!
DeleteLOL, too cute! Too bad not everyone likes pie... XD
ReplyDeleteI'm sure he'll offer cake to those who don't!
DeleteYes, Bubba knows Mama can bake pies and he's already counting up the votes he'll get. One of our sons mentioned he might become a politician someday. But he said the trouble with that plan is you can' t do anything wrong in your whole life!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Tell the politicians that!
DeleteLOL.. That was cute !!
ReplyDeleteHe has a promising future ahead of him!
DeleteHaha, I love it! That sounds like how my son thinks!
ReplyDeleteMaybe kids should be running the country!
DeleteMay him emerged as a winner.
ReplyDeleteI'm certain he will!
DeleteIf you need anyone to go undercover, pose as a student, and help cast a few more votes in Bubba's favor, I'll easily sell my integrity for pie.
ReplyDeleteHow do you do, fellow kids?
Haha! I'll let my boy know, and see what he says.
