Frank call

This morning I walked into Evangels room to put away laundry. She was lying in her bed and Michael was sitting beside the bed watching her. “What’s wrong Evangel?” I asked.

“I’m tired,” she said.

Michael sitting there looking exasperated shook his head and said, “We had an argument,” he took a deep breath and then started his long winded explanation. “And I really think that she is trying to Frank call me because she was fine a few minutes ago, and she wasn’t tired at all. But then we were fighting and now she’s mad but saying that she’s tired.”

I must say that I was only half listening to the second half because my brain froze at the frank call and I was trying not to laugh while he was telling me something that he thought was serious.  Oh the things kids say……

Professional Driver

“That lady was eating while she was driving,” Evangel said while we were driving down the road.

 “It’s not illegal for people to eat while they are driving,” Michael matter -of-factly told Evangel.

“Did you know that it is illegal to talk on your cell phone in Oregon while you are driving?” I asked Michael.

“Yeah it’s illegal here too, unless you are a professional driver,” Michael said.

Evangel was quiet and then asked, “Is mommy a professional driver?”

“Yes! She can drive with her knees!” Michael said like it was the coolest thing in the world. And it was then that I decided I want to be a professional driver when I grow up. Hahahaha
