Overheard, Over Here

Child:  handing up a tissue pack from the back of the suburban "Can you put these back in the constellation?"

Parent: "Do you mean console?"

#Potatopotahto

Parent:  "Which hymn do you want to sing for devotions?"

Child:  announces hymn number, then while parent is looking the other way mouthes to sibling: "I chose it because it only has three verses"

Sigh.  Apparently singing hymns is not this child's favorite devotional discipline.

Parent:  "Out of all the boys in the world, how did we get the best ones?"

Boy:  "Don't you mean the best one?"

#brotherlylove

Child:  playing Extreme Makeover:Home Edition with playmobil figures  "And then Ty is going to kill them all!"

Parent:  "What did you say?"

Child:  "I took a turn away from the show!"

Thankfully, the child took another turn and all the participants and stars instead lived happily ever after.

Child:  "When is the rental student going back to his country?"

Parent:  "Do you mean exchange student?"
