The scene: an overpriced department store
The purpose for our visit: to purchase a $100 group gift card for a relative who just had a baby
After paying for the item, I put the card in my purse. My kids were quiet until we got outside. And then they let me have it.
"You paid $100 for that?" Camber screeched. "That's a total rip-off!"
"You are not that smart," added Cortlen.
Kellen produced an identical card from his pocket.
"I got one for free," he bragged. "The woman told me that I could have it."
Sometimes I don't think that I'm going to make it to forty.

ReplyDeleteYou're kids are so amazingly smart!
ReplyDeleteDo not confuse the two cards and send the wrong one.
ReplyDeleteYour kids are onto something! You hand the clerk $100 and they hand you a plastic card. There logic makes sense :)
ReplyDeleteThat is funny. Did he try to sell you his card?
ReplyDeleteThats adorable
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love this blog. You (and your children) are hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI love reading your blog! I can always count on you/your kids to make me laugh.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Too funny! Your kids are too smart for their own good!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Too bad the free one isn't worth $100! BTW that is quite the baby gift!
ReplyDeleteI like the irony the dept. store clerk employed.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm....can I borrow the kids and let them do my shopping?
