Conversation at the breakfast table
Me: So, Bug, your letter this week at school is "V." What are you going to take for Show & Tell tomorrow?
Bug: My Volcano book!!
Me: Gosh, I haven't seen that in a while. In case we can't find it, what do you want to take?
Bug: Just my Volcano book.
Me: Okay....but let's think of some other things that start with "V" just n case.
Bear: Violin! Valentine!
SugarPlum: Veterinarian! Vibrate! Hey, do we have anything that vibrates? You know, I'll bet that Bug would be the only one with a vibrator at school!
Me: *sputter* *cough* *cough* WHAT?
SugarPlum: You know, if we find something that vibrates, like that funny ball PawPaw got Bear for Christmas that year. He could say it's a vibrator!
Me: Um...yeah. SOOO! Why don't you go look for that Volcano book for me....while I clean up this tea I spewed all over the table.
*for the record, we never found the Volcano book. We did, however find a Velociraptor book, thus saving my family years of embarrassment at the Baptist Church preschool....*
