Still More Funnies

This morning as there was some chaos in the room, Nate marched in and said, "What in the name of corn on the cob is going on here?"

[Anyone recognize that quote?]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Friday, when I had told Emma she needed to have a verse memorized before dinner.

Me: Emma, can you tell me your verse?

Emma, all wide eyed and innocent: You said you would help me with it later.

Me (confused): When did I tell you that?!

Emma: When you were sleeping on the sofa.

Silence.

Me: You cannot ask me things when I sleep and assume I gave you a real answer!

[Can you imagine the things that will ensue if they start asking me things while I am SLEEPING!]

  1. That's hilarious! I do the same thing. I'll wake up and a movie will be on, I'll ask who gave permission for that. They say, with a shrug, "You did." I think it should be treated as sleep talkin'. Doesn't count, even if the did "wake me up" to ask.

  2. This is so funny! My kids have done it to me when I am on the phone. I say, "Who told you that you could do this?" and they reply that they asked me when I was on the phone and they heard me say "Uh huh." So for sure that "Uh huh" was for them...LOL! Lisa~
