What Would You Think...

...if, while inside the house at a family party, you heard your son outside yell to your husband:

"Hey Dad! If mom asks where I am tell her I'm in the house."

1. Would you think that, at 7 years old, your son has already figured out what (to quote my sister) an anal freak you are and knows that you will be the only one needing to verify his whereabouts?

2. Or would you think that, at 7 years old, your son knows who is the boss and wants to make sure everyone else knows it too?

I'm going with option number two.

oh, that's funny. I work with kids and am always amazed at the things they say - did I really do the same things at the same age?

So funny! I think it's probably #2 and would be #2 and then #1 in my house too!

Have a good week, Heather - see you - Kellan

I would think I'd better get out there and figure out what they were up to! Especially since we moms are in NO WAY anal or bossy! We are loving, caring, and concerned, dagnabbitall!! ;O)

I'd be worried about the shrubs. Sounds like a redirection play. Sometimes Dad's play along cause...never mind...I said nothing.

Umm, both?

How about #3, that little stinker is up to something and is setting up his alibi??

Oh, that may be just my kids...

I'm leaning towards the alibi"no.3" idea. How funny. And when have i called you an AnalFreak? My,my,my....If i'm not the pot callin the kettle black. I guess it just runs in our blood:) Imagine that?

I choose the alibi, especially since told dad. Sounds like my house. In my house DAD is always the cover.
