Heehee

Scott went up to Ethan's room this afternoon and found that Marley had gotten a hold of some scissors. She took some photos off Ethan's photo board and cut all the edges off. Scott was so angry!
Scott - "You are already grounded from your crayons for the week for drawing on the walls, Marley! Now you are going to be grounded from scissors too!"
A couple of minutes later ...
"In fact ... I am going to call your teacher and tell her that you are grounded and you can't even use the scissors at school!"
Me - "What? That doesn't even make sense, Scott."
Scott - "No ... I am serious. You're going in to her class tomorrow to help so I want you to tell her teacher that she is grounded from scissors for the week."

Right, like that is going to happen! Can you imagine the look on Mrs. Thibault's face when I tell her ... "so ... it's like this, Mrs. Thibault, Marley is grounded from the scissors, so I would appreciate it if you wouldn't let her use any scissors for her work this week."

And then Marley sitting at her table with a sad look of her face, tearing paper for her Thanksgiving turkey while all the other kids are cutting out theirs.

Ethan was jumping on our bed this evening and all of a sudden he fell down and acted like he got hurt. Marley was playing along and says, "AAAAh! Oh no - someone call the Doctor in Covenants!"
