Such great captures... sounds to me as if you are on your way to writing a book.
I was going to make myself stop reading blogs and go get something done, and then I saw your title...so I had to read this one!! Did not disappoint! "Is it a we-caused headacne?" hahaha!
These always crack me up!! Love it!
I love these.
Your kids are so bright -- what fun (most of the time) it must be to teach them and them teach you. :)
Oh my goodness Tamar, these are hilarious. Thanks for starting my day off with a smile. :)
Oh my, kids do have all the answers and you can tell them, they have the right to be wrong. It's what my husband tells me when I think I'm right, but I usually am (right that is). LOL
Kids say the darnedest things...love it. # 1 is funny!
ROFL....these are so funny, SO FuNNy! I was laughing so hard my dog came upstairs to see what all the commotion was about. I've said it before, I'll say it again....you need to put these in a book...put them in a book and I will be the first one to buy a copy or two!
Ahhh, thanks for the great belly laughs!! xo
They are hilarious! Their humor is pretty advanced, in my opinion. How do you keep a straight face?
SO funny! Aren't kids just so great and endless fun?! My favorite is the pretzel sticks. Thanks for the laughs!
Oh, these are precious! I can't even pick a favorite. Keep them coming!
