Your Daily Tidbit - 8/25

My kids are geniuses. So are Hubs and I. I think it's time I share some of our worldly wisdom with all of you on a daily basis. They might just be quick one-line responses you can use in your everyday to combat stupidity or elicit laughter. Some of it might be great advice you'll want to adhere to. Take it or leave it, these are some of the rules our house lives by.


The Old Adage

OJ was playing quietly in his room. Mama hollered down the hallway if he was okay. He came out to the living room and motioned to Mama.

"Come here, Mama. Come HERE."

He waved her back and waited for her to follow him down the hallway. She peeked into his bedroom, and he proudly pointed down at three wooden train pieces, lined up and held together magnetically.

"I put together, Mama!"

Mama clapped and congratulated OJ, exclaiming he did a GREAT job.

"Mama happy?? Mama happy!"

OJ smiled broadly as if his only goal in putting together the train was to make Mama happy. He must be listening closely to his big brother, TO, who will on a regular basis chant:

If Mama's happy, everybody's happy.
If Mama's mad, somebody did something bad!

Some things will always, always be true.
