uh, funny store time? Sure, maybe this will help me remember:
Rory gets into the car on Friday with a hunk of ice in her hand.
Rory "look mom, this looks just like a manatee"
me "ok"
Rory continues to praise her manatee as we drive to Krogers, I tell the kids I'm running in to buy money orders, do they want to come with me, or wait in the car. They choose to wait in the car. 5 minutes later I return. Rory is crying hysterically, Liam is in the back with his eyes wide open and a "this chick is nuts" look on his face.
Rory: "Liam made me eat my manatee!"
me: "What happened"
Rory: "I said it was dripping a little and maybe melting, and he said 'bite it's head off', so I did!"
me: "So, did he force it into your mouth and make you chew it up?"
Rory: "no! I did it myself, but he made me. This is my worst day ever, he's ruined my life"
Rory continues to whine, complain, mourn etc.
me: "What do you want me to do?"
Rory: "Punish Liam"
me: "You want someone punished for ruining your toy?"
Rory: "It's not a toy, it's a statue!"
me: "Ok, someone should be punished for destroying your statue?"
Rory: "yes"
me: "Rory you're grounded"
Rory: "why"
me: "You ate your statue"
more crying ensued till we reached Grandma O'Connor's and she found an "x-ray" (stingray) shaped hunk of ice.
kids...
