No Answer

posted by Momo Fali on September 4, 2009

I was in the kitchen the other day when my seven year old son yelled to me from the living room, “Hey, Mom! Can I watch Cars?”

I replied, “No, you watched it on Sunday and again on Monday. Why don’t you read a book instead?”

And, apparently he didn’t like my response because then he yelled, “Ugh! Don’t answer my questions ever again!”

    Kids can be sooo funny! My son saw a sign on the highway that said, DUI CRACK DOWN and he asked why does it say, "Do I Crack Down?".
