Corny ideas

Scene: My four year old sitting at the table last night at dinner. He is staring at his plate, which has a serving of corn on it. This corn is the only thing between him and a visit to the candy bucket.

He looks up at me and says, "Mom, I don't think I should eat these. I think they are poisonous."

You need to inform #3 that peas are poisonous, not corn.

My mom used to tell us peas were just green corn so we would eat them. I'm sure that's the ONLY lie she ever told us.

I can see a family (personality) resemblence (spg?) between #3 and Abe. Too funny!!!!!

You know John Lennon's mother used to fight with him trying to get him to eat his peas. She would say, "All I am saying, is give peas a chance."
