THAT IS THE QUESTION...
I needed to go grocery shopping last week, so after church, I took my two older kids with me to tag along. Plus, I had to get a bunch of stuff, so I wanted their help of loading and unloading the groceries.
Anyway, after the cashier rings up the mega pack of gum I got for the kids, Isaiah asked if he could just hold it. I said, "Yah, sure." So he takes it and then he and Miranda wait for me by the sliding door (which was only a few feet away). As soon as the cashier was done putting all the bags in the cart, I say, "Isaiah," and pointed to the cart.
Now, it doesn't take a brainiac to figure out what I meant, right?
Well, he looks at me innocently and says, "Oh...do you want me to put this in the cart (meaning his GUM)?" So, he starts walking toward the cart to put the gum in there. First thing I said was, "What??????"
I take my camera out of my purse and say, "Oh..hold on...I need to take a picture of this and blog about what you just did." He still didn't get it..lol. He just had that lost look in his eyes like, "What just happened???"
Oh...and after was said and done, who do you think ended up pushing the cart to car?
I'll let you guess!
Ay yi yi...gotta love 'em!!

Yes, lol, got to love them.
Mom didn't you know the gum was to heavy to carry?...lol
That is hilarious! Glad you had your camera so you could capture the moment! I usually keep one in my purse at all times as well. Usually drives my friends and family crazy. The sad part is...after all is said and done the post is never written. Maybe I will do better this summer since I will not be working! :) Lana
Too funny! Reminds me of my own lovely son who is always so helpful ;)
Bill Cosby was right they have brain damage!!! But in a funny way.
LOL!! My boys would have done the same thing!!
That is one big pack of gum ;) I love your son, he just looks so sweet and funny.
Yep... pretty much the life of a teenage boy. Love how everything in your cart is 'bulk'.. I can relate!
Sooooo Funny!
Boys!! They may speak English, but they sure don't hear it!!! Something mine so would've done!!! Looks like you went to Sam's Club! I heart Sam's!
Ahahahaaa! He's proving to me that grown men acquire these behaviors YOUNG! LOL! My husband hasn't yet outgrown this particular habit! LOL!
LMAO! To funny!
I love that you had your camera along to document! lol
Boys...gotta love 'em :)
Wow, that is a big pack of gum! Oh girl, his future wife will appreciate you teaching him some chivalry. Son, push that cart for Mama! :o)
Maybe he couldn't hear ya. LOL
That is too funny! I want some of that gum:)
Yeah, they keep trying that "innocent" act for as long as they can, lol!
I mean, come on, he was already carrying the gum...what more do you want! lol hilarious!
LOL, they never leave you with a shortage of blogging material, do they??
Man it happens every time doesn't it, LOL!!
I wish we could get by with being so self focused as they do!!! :)
Oh yes been there done that. That's boys for ya! I can come home from the store and have a car full of bags..my boys run out to talk to me and see what I got but leave the bags in the car while they run in the door ahead of me and it slams in my face.
too funny, gotta love that!
I was at Costco on Friday and it was raining, my 17yo was with me but come check-out time, he was M.I.A.
Anyway, I ended up pushing the cart but he did help me load and unload the car...
Kaish does the same thing. In fact, he likes to actually GET IN the cart so he can be pushed around. God forbid he actaull HELP his mother.... : ) You gotta love these boys of ours, don't you?
hahaha too cute! Yea, good move only letting them do their own laundry! And YES devotionals must start the day or I simply cannot have a heart full of song -- gotta start the day with Jesus! :) Hope your home is singing the day away!
Be Blessed ~ Lauren
He thought he was lightening your load by carrying the gum!
Gotta wonder sometimes what goes through those little minds. I wish I could be a fly on the wall of their thought (or lack there of) process!! Have a good week!
