Sometimes, I just get in one of those goofy kinds of moods, especially if the week is going well, where all I do is find little ways to joke around with my kids. I totally crack myself up. Some of my kids say it is a sign that I am going cookoo. :) Do you ever do this? Annie? Sarah?
1. John bought a Barry Bonds Bobblehead (say that 3x's fast)that nobody really wants anymore, but for whatever reason I haven't gotten rid of yet. When Adam is at school, I sneak it in his room and usually put it on his dresser or something. Then a day or two later, I find it somewhere in my room. Well, now it is in his closet hiding under his socks. I'm sure he'll find it the next time he takes a shower. :)
2. Anna brought me home a note from her teacher asking for a can of green beans to make Pilgrim Stew. When Anna was doing her homework, I quietly placed a can of black beans next to her. I walked away to hide my goofy smile as she said to me, "Umm Mom, my teacher wanted green beans, not black beans."
"Anna, green beans, black beans, red beans, they're all the same. I'm sure she'll be thankful that you brought any beans at all."
She looks at me funny and said, "Okay mom, but I think she is going to know the difference."
I winked at her, as I gave her a can of green beans. Boy, that was fun. :)
