I have been sick and the youngest is home sick also so its been an exciting day to say the least. After the hundredth story about his Best friend brad and all the drama of the first grade, Hanna Montana and why green jelly beans are just the greatest I started to tune it out.In my defense I have been running a pretty high fever and am feeling pretty bad.   Apparently during this time of tunning out he asked if we could go to Mickey D's for dinner.   scratch  He says I said yes. I do not remember this particular conversation. 

So my husband comes home and youngest is all excited. We are going to mickey d's mom said so!.. what? when?   laughing   

so when I say nope I dont believe I said that all hell broke loose. I guess that will teach me to let my mind wonder.

Kids always know who the pushover is. In my DH's family, that would me myself ("But Aunt Margaret said we could go bungee jumping!")

That would not work on my Mom, since Dad never talked. The "he said" part would give it away laughing

You poor dear, hope you feel better, and my nephew got me in a similar way, we were in the car and he was about 4 or 5, he has a speech problem and you must really pay attention to understand him at that age, Needless to say I was not paying attention and pulled up to the bank drive thru and did my business, then pulled away. Well all heck broke lose and he was screaming and crying. I finally after 15 minutes and 3 lollipops got him to settle down and tell me the problem, Well he said, you left Mc dd's and did not get my food. lol I guess somewhere in the conversation he asked if it was McDonald's, (Mc d's to him) and I gave him the usual ya. Never say ya unless you really know what you are saying ya to. I got to drive 60 miles to get to a Mcdonalds because that's how far we live in nowhere land. go figure. lol
