Today at the dinner table, there were some pretty interesting conversations going on.
Joel- Dad, can eat the rest with my hands? (referring to chicken he had to pull off of the bone)
PAUSE
Dad- Um, yeah.
PAUSE
Dad- I had to look up when you said that because I thought you said "Can I eat the rice with my hands." I thought that sounded pretty weird, so I had to look up to see what the heck you were talking about. Then I saw you didn't have any rice, and I was very confused. But then I saw you were holding a chicken bone, so it finally occured to me that you said rest, not rice. That's why I paused.
Mom- All of that went through your head in a second?
Dad- Yup.
END OF CONVERSATION
Dad- Well, Josh and I played outside today.
Rachel- Oh yeah- Josh, were you throwing golf balls at the skylights?
Dad- No, he was throwing tennis balls.
Rachel- Oh. Josh, were you throwing tennis balls at the skylights?
Josh- Didn't Dad just answer your question?
Rachel- So that's what the thumping was.
Dad- We were having fun until Josh MAIMED me.
(Laughs from all kids)
Rachel- (in between laughs) What did YOU do?
Dad- Nothing! I was just minding my own business, and he MAIMED me!
(more laughs)
Rachel- Josh, what did he do?
Dad- Nothing!!! I was just standing there! Then he threw the ball at me like a maniac! (Josh is laughing so hard he begins to drool) Look at him! He's a maniac!!!
Mom- Josh, here, use a napkin.
(It took us about 2 minutes to stop laughing hysterically.)
Josh- Dad, don't make me laugh while I'm drinking!
PAUSE
Josh- You know, some people say "Yay big." (guesturing)
Rachel- That was random.
Dad- Yeah Josh, that was really random.
END OF COMVERSATION
True story, I tell you! You never know what will go on at the dinner table at the L house...

I think my family has forbidden me from posting conversations. Still, they're pretty fun, aren't they?
Interesting...

Just to clarify Rachel...Josh maimed me with his golf club, not by throwing a ball. He hit a nice tee shot (plastic golf ball) in the front yard, and then started swinging his club around like he was being attacked by hoodlums! I tried to get out of the way, but took a direct hit on one of my fingers. I was not pleased...not pleased at all.
how fun!
Natt
