in honor of hubby, who complained today that I never blogged about him. sheesh, thought I was doing him a favor. haha

Scene: yesterday driving around.

C: There were these gigantic ducks in our yard today!
Me: Are you sure they weren't geese?
C: No, they were ducks.
Me: Are you sure? There's a whole flock of Canada geese in the marsh across the road, and sometimes they come over into the yard.
C: Aren't geese white?
Me: Uh, not Canada geese. Are you SURE they weren't geese? Were they Canada geese?
C: What do they look like?
Me: Are you kidding me?!!? Did they have a long black neck with a white marking on the chin?
C: I don't know.
Me: Did they look like that? pointing to a small group of Canada geese--one need not look far in SE Pennsylvania in the winter for Canada geese--but C didn't see what I was pointing to
C: hmm. Maybe they were geese. I don't know. Anyway, there were geese in our yard today, and I almost called you to get Ellis to see, because he would've loved it. But I couldn't find my phone.

Me: laughing harder and harder
C: Are you going to blog about this?

That was good for a laugh at the end of a hard day! You made us smile. Thanks Chris (and Jeannette)!! :) I had to read it to David too. loved the blog about Chris. Keep it up

LLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL... oohoo! It's priceless! "Are you going to blog about this?" lllooolll

Okay, you got me laughing out loud AND picturing the scene quite poignantly, having experience those very geese in that very yard.

HEE!!!

And, what? He couldn't find his phone? (Or was he leaving the house and was outside? It makes it sound like he's just super lazy. "Where's that wife of mine? I should get her to come here and... where's my phone? Oh never mind. Wonder what's on TV.")
