THE LOUDON OF THE DAY

I've just gotten through with a lecture for The Loudon on why punching your brother in the head isn't allowed in our house...

The Loudon (evilly calm): "Mom. I want to take you to Target and exchange you for another, nicer Mom."

Mama: "Oh, really? And what do you think another Mom would do if you punched your brother across the head?"

The Loudon: "She would say, 'It was ALL his fault!'"

Oy. Some days, I really wish Mama could go Gramma Gerrie on his butt!

But there's no hitting allowed in Mama house.

Sigh.
