“Mom. How come when Smokey has her collar on, her hair poofs up?”
” ‘Cus her mane is growing in. We told you all about that.”
“Her mane?”
“Yea. Just like a lion… And when it is fully grown in, she will be all lion. Then she will eat deers, antelopes, people, that kind of thing”
“….. . . .really??!”
“Yes. We told you all of this. wait. Let me show you a picture”
“See. This dog’s mane is fully grown so she is all lion now.”
“But. She isn’t big enough to be a lion.”
“Well no, they don’t turn into lions. They just think they are lions and start acting like them. The dog in the picture didn’t turn yellow did it?”
” No. But…. will she really eat us?”
“Not if she can’t catch you. In the summer time we will start to train -”
“We’re gonna train her to not to eat us?”
“No, we’re going to start training you guys to run faster. If she can’t catch you sooner or later she will give up. Besides, her mane has just started to grow in, so you have lots of time to train. I wouldn’t worry too much over it.”
Kids are SO trusting.

One time my hubby told both the kids to get the scissors and trim the grass with the sissors. My son went and GOT a pair of scissors and my daughter just looked at him said “Yeah right”. The boys are way more gulliable than girls

Congratulations on the award thingy. It wasn’t me who nominated you. Next time, send me an email telling me what you want to be nominated for and I am your girl.
You are mean to your children. I think that they should come live with auntie Shelli for awhile. lol (Now that I think about it, I convinced my kids that their grandma was a leprechaun so, maybe I am a mean mommy, too.)

Smokey is just too sweet and loving to eat the kids. Your socks and coffee pot maybe, but not the boys. (actually the 4 of them may be conspiring against you, you better watch out!!)
