for f.h.e. the other night, we decided to have an "emergency lesson." so we talked with carson (and layla, but let's be honest...her brain remains in la-la land until treats are directly involved) about emergencies. like, what should he do if mommy or daddy "fell asleep" and wouldn't wake up?
carson: "i'd yell at you to wake you up!"
me: "good idea. that usually wakes people up all right. but what if we STILL didn't wake up? what would you do then?"
carson: "i'd yell even LOUDAH!"
glad to know we're in good hands.
incidentally, if anyone hears continuous & very loud yelling coming from our house, it might not be a bad idea to stop in and check things out. especially since my kids never, nope NEVER, yell unless in dire emergencies. like a finger touching them. or a cheerio on the floor. or someone looking at them. or having to share. you know--the life-threatening stuff.

i'm going to have to ask you to stop being funny so i don't have to miss you so much. ok?
I agree with val! I miss hanging out together...
and your house sounds like my house! I swear people probably walk by when the windows are open and wonder in what way the children inside our home are being tortured...they are so loud!
HA HA HA! we had the EXACT same lesson a while back! we got this from hannah: "well, why wouldn't you wake up if i yelled in your ear?" me: "b/c i'd be 1/2 DEAD." kidding - i didn't really respond like that. . . .
mmm, treats. oh wait, were you writing about something else? :)
that little carson is so funny! i love your stories, brittney. thanks for the entertainment. i hope your mouth's feeling better.
Brittney, you're hilarious! Love the post. It's great to know we're in good hands in case of an emergency, isn't it?
