Say WHAT?!

                                

“Water and poop do not make mud!”

 

Background: We were playing in the backyard and my son asked if he and his sister could make mud.  I told him that was fine.  I was sitting back, relaxing, and reading a magazine in a patio chair.  I could see them pouring water and stirring with their shovels.  Everything looked kosher.

WRONG.

He came up to me and asked me if I wanted some mud cake.  I said, “Sure”.  I leaned in to pretend eat (you know, where you get really close and make munching sounds).  I was hit by that all too familiar smell.

I asked what he put in his mud cake.  He said, “Just mud.”  So I asked how he made his mud.  He said, “Oh…it’s a great recipe!  I mix up a little dirt with dog poop and add water.  Ta-da! You have your very own mud.”

I wish I was making this up.  I wrote down the exact words right then in the magazine so I could tell my husband.  Then I immediately thought of you all and how you would laugh at this one.  :-)

Chalk another one up to things I thought would never come out of my mouth.  What weird thing have you said lately?
