A random sampling of interactions that demonstrates just how stupid my children think I am.
“Dad! I am turning off my IPad!”
“Then why are you laying on couch, running your fingers all over the screen while I’m hearing explosions?”
“That’s how you turn these off.”
“Dad. Can you fix this Lego piece? I was just sitting there playing with my Legos and this dude ran into the house, took this piece, snapped it and ran away.”
“Dad! I did finish eating the hamburger.”
“Why are you squirming in your pants with ketchup leaking out of your pocket?”
“It’s not because there’s a hamburger in my pocket!”
“Boys! Lift the lid! Which one of you peed all over the seat?”
“Mom was the last one in there!”
“I’ll practice every day!”
“If you game with us, we promise not to kill you.”
“Technically, my teacher said I don’t have to do this.”
“Ben, I have a question about school.”
“How’d you find out about that?”
“I had a question about your homework.”
“Good, because nothing happened.”
“I wasn’t playing with it!”
Seriously, if I was as blind, deaf, and stupid as my children apparently think I am, natural selection would have picked me off long ago.
I laughed so hard! 🙂

Read them all to my folks. They were cracking up….My dad says “that’s a good writer, is he from around your area?” Your humor is officially generational as the folks are 79/80
