Last night we had some friend over for dinner. Dinner is always a circus, but when we have guests the problem only escalates. After an evening of the kids usual shenanigans we tried to sit down with our friends have have some human/adult conversation. Of course, it was one interruption after another. I was starting to get annoyed (yeah I know) when we were interrupted with this this gem.
From downstairs we hear a frantic voice...
Micaiah: "¡Ayúdeme, ¡Ayúdeme Help Me, Help Me!"
Greg: What's wrong?
Micaiah: "My undies are stuck!"
Greg: "Stuck where? In your bum, or in your drawer?"
Micaiah: "No! In the computer!!"
Without even a thought, about what may have just transpired, I tried to continue my conversation with our friends. I looked up and realized they were both giggling. Hmmm? Did someone just tell a joke, and I missed it? No....? Of course, they were laughing at Micaiah. But I hadn't even stopped to think that the ridiculousness we had just overheard might be funny. I guess when you hear odd things all the time, they begin to lose their hilarity. Sad. I decided then and there, that I didn't want to let these moments pass me by, and that I want to laugh when something if funny. Because, let's face it, even though kids are not always well behaved - They are stinkin' hillarious!
P.S. In case your curiosity is getting the better of you. I have no idea what happened with the undies in the computer.

This certainly made me laugh out loud! Thanks!
yay! we were a part of one of your posts! (even if we are called 'the guests')
It was one of the best moments. I still say you need to write that book.
