A Tooth In Her Throat

Commercial Break for a interesting and "funny to me" conversation with my daughter.

Daughter: There is a girl at my school that just licks her food.

Me: Why does she do that?

Daughter: She has a tooth stuck in her throat and won't go to the hospital because she says they can't help her.

Me (with a "goodness-gracious-child" look): So since the tooth is stuck, she never eats?

Daughter: She can't because of the tooth.

Me: Do you think she is telling the truth?

Daughter: Well, I don't believe that the doctors can't help her but I do believe she has a tooth stuck in her throat and she can't eat.

Me: OK

I just had to leave that alone.  I was about to bust out laughing but she was totally serious:)  The things that kids believe.

Kid Instruction Book and Packed Lunch

Yesterday, as we were going to my daughter's Girl Scout meeting, she said "Mommy, wouldn't it be nice if kids came with an instruction book. That way you would always know what to do with us?" I said "Yes, indeed." LOL


OK, so I was so proud of myself for making the kids lunches for school Monday. I made them on Sunday evening and even cut their sandwiches with cookie cutters.  They were really cute. Apparently, my kids did not find them as cute as I did.  When my son got home he asked me why I gave him those little sandwiches.  My daughter said she just wanted a whole sandwich next time.  I was crushed. I though that they would come home, at least my daughter because I made hers into a heart, and say how they loved them. I explained it was the same size sandwich, just in a shape.  They weren't feeling it. :)


Would there be a chapter in my kids instruction book called "The Kids Don't Like Little Cute Sandwiches"?
