On the drive to school this morning

2010/09/30

Leta: Who’s going to pick me up from school?

Me: My butt.

Leta: MOM! THAT’S NOT FUNNY!

Me: Why is my butt not funny?

Leta: IT JUST ISN’T!

Me: Leta, pretend you’re a boy for, say, two minutes. Then it might be funny.

Leta: Can you just answer my question?

Me: My butt can.

Leta: MOM!

Me: WHAT?

Leta: WHO IS PICKING ME UP FROM SCHOOL?!

Me: Imagine for a second that my butt is funny.

Leta: MOM.

Me: Because then you’d like my answer.

Leta: Is it going to be you or Daddy?

Me: My butt.

Leta: UUUGHHHH!

Me: I think we need to work on your imagination.
