New Toothpaste?

A sign that my wonderful wife might be too busy. The kids needed a lot tonight. They were pleasant but kept us hopping. My wife decided to take a minute to run in the bathroom and brush my teeth after dinner and homework were done. 

She brushed my teeth for about 60 seconds. All of the sudden she had a horrible taste in her mouth--truly awful. She then realized that when she reached into the bathroom drawer without looking, she had grabbed a tube of desitin rather than the tooth paste. She has tried mouthwash, lemons, and cannot get that taste (or feeling) out of her mouth!

Look Dad, it's a distraction!


My wife had president’s day off and was home with our kids.   Our younger two boys were fighting and called me at work.  I settled the argument as best I could from the office and asked them to put their mother on the phone.  My middle son said, “You’re breaking up dad.  I can’t hear you.”  His younger brother said, “No you’re not.  You sound fine.”

This morning I was horsing around with my middle son.  I was getting the best of him and he pointed to the other end of the house and yelled, “Look dad, it’s a distraction.”

Classic.
