Son: Blah blah blah blah blah.
Wife: Put on your shoes.
Son: Blah blah blah blah blah.
Wife: Put on your shoes.
Son: Blah blah blah blah blah.
Wife: Boy! Put on your shoes!
Son: Lady! I don't have any socks!

And then I covered my face and left very quickly because a) my laughter might encourage that kind of behavior which is not what we want and b) I wanted to live to see the dawn.

Reminded me of trying to get our 2 year old to talk quieter so he wouldn’t wake the baby, when his nanny came around the corner singing, so he looked at her and shot out a “shut up” at her followed by a “don’t wake the baby”. Damn their are cute, and boy do we have to turn quick;y so they don’t see us laughing.
