My Favorite Quoteables of the Day

Courtesy of Hockey Player.
The Mom: HP, have you learned the states and their capitals?
HP: Some of them, I know more now than I knew before.
Mom: Laughter, lots of laughter. Maybe, 5 minutes of laughter. It sure did not generate the same enthusiastic chuckle from dad. Though Dad said, "Wow, he used more than one word to answer!"
Hockey Player is honest. He is a man of few words. But how can you argue with, "I know more than before."
Well, he better learn them quick. The test is coming.


Between Fun Mom and Flutter Nutter.
Flutter Nutter is waiting for Fun Mom to finish her homework.
When she finishes there will be a trip to the store for marshmallows for Rice Krispie Treats.
He comes to get close to me, because sometimes he just needs to be right by my side. He discovers my secret stash for Scooby Doo Fruit Snacks! ARGH. He is so sweet..... Yes you can have one. But there is two.
"Can I share them?" he asks.
"No, there's not enough (I have been eating them), go to the table."
"Flutter Nutter, can I have some?" Fun Mom.
FN: "No, not till you finish your school work!"
laughter
FM: "Can I have something to help me get through and finish, an incentive? Pleeeeeease!"
FN: "NO!, not till you finish your work!"
She tries to blackmail him with brownies, to no avail. He wants his Rice Krispie Treats. She best hurry bedtime is in an hour.
I love it, for once it wasn't me ordering her to a chair to get work done! !
