Lucy funnies

Yesterday Lucy asked me if I would play Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? on the Wii.  I told her no because I had some things that I needed to get done.  She asked again pleading.  I said "no, because you need me to play with you and I can't right now."  "PLEASE" she said.  I said, "Fine but I'm not going to help."  "Okay mom thanks, I can do it." 

10 minutes later...

"Mom will you help me dress my person?"  She hadn't even gotten to the questions.  "Okay, just a minute."

I help her dress her person like she wanted and got her to the questions.  "Okay Mom, which one is right?"she says.  I can't pass up getting a question right so I help her.  Again with the next question.  So I had given in.  We play a little until we lose for the 2nd time.  I say, "Okay Lucy,  I'm done."  "Mom, please."she responds.  "No Lucy I've got to get back to this."I say.  Then Lucy says, "Mom I'm not smarter than a 5th grader without you."

I'm glad that her smarts and my smarts together are smarter than a 5th grader!                                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With all of the news happenings this weekend I have been listening to Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh.  (Probably to much)  With me(one who is rarely alone) listening, little ears listen as well.  Rush had sarcasticly said, "Obama killed Osama."  Lucy said, "Obama killed a llama?".  I had to chuckle.  I then told her that Obama didn't kill anyone and a little about what happened this weekend. 

It still makes me chuckle.
