Car pool




I did not have to drive today, but I got a funny story for you from the Carpool Files.  At 3:30 ish I get a phone call from one of the other mom's.  She tells me Ethan isn't in the car yet because he

STUCK HIS TONGUE TO A POLE!!!!!

Don't we all remember what happened last year?  Trust me if you don't remember it is worth a read.  I was so mad.

When Ethan got home I found out he was trying to show his friend how if you just breathe on your tongue you can get it off.  OK it is 1 degree out today. Uno degree-os (for those of you Spanish readers).  Puker had to run inside and get a cup of hot water from the nurse to pour on Ethan tongue to get it off.

The breath trick does not work

And Ethan will never be doing this again.

Hopefully.

I guess Ethan didn't "learn [his] lesson" after all. I'm looking forward to to see what trick he tries next year. :)

Oh that boy! I don't see him ever getting tired of that trick :) Maybe he needs to start carrying a hot water bottle for just such an emergency. Hopefully his tounge isn't as in bad of shape as last year!

I have this image of you smacking your hand to your forehead and running it down your face. Yes, I have an active imagination and apparently the kid in question has a short memory.

HAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh I know you are mad, but he is LIVING my favorite movie!! Poor guy.

I can just picture him "Don't leave me, don't leave me" while his friend went to get the water!

A little quote or two...

“There is in every true woman's heart, a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity, but which kindles up and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity.” -Washington Irving

BOOK HOUSE from the paper of my Grandfather Sidney W. Campbell

I always think the cover of a book is like a door Which opens into someone's house where I've not been
before. A pirate or a fairy queen may lift the latch for me. I always wonder when I knock, what welcome there will be. And when I find a house that's dull, I do not often stay But when I find one full of friends, I'm apt to spend the day. I never know what sort of folks will be within you see. And that's why reading always is so interesting to me. ~~Annie Fellows Johnston
