My brother, John, and his wife, Rebecca, had just finished tucking their children into bed when they heard crying sounds coming from the kids' room. They rushed into the room and found little Suzie crying hysterically.
She had accidentally swallowed a 5p piece and believed she was going to die. No amount of convincing would console her. Trying to calm her, John took out a 5p coin that he had in his pocket and pretended to remove it from Suzie's ear. Suzie was delighted beyond words and in a flash, snatched the coin from her father's hand, swallowed it and insisted cheerfully - 'Do it again, Dad!'

Little Sonia was looking intently at her mother.
Mother: “What’s the matter? Why are you looking at me like that?”
Sonia: “Some of your hair are white mom.”
Mother: “That’s right. Whenever you make a mischief, one of my hairs turns white. That’s how some have become white.”
Sonia was thoughtful: “Are all of grandma’s hair white due to the same reason?”

Good morning everyboomie.
Thanks for the kind words regarding my flower bed. As I said, I'm not a gardener, but I am glad you like it.
And then there was this:
New carport ................
Really happy to have shelter for my truck now.
Today was my first day back at Lowe's, and what a welcome!
I even had one customer tell me he was glad to see me back. That's the best feeling.
One full time kid, and one part-timer in Inside Lawn and Garden, separately asked me what department I work in, and when I told them, "This one", they almost had tears in their eyes.
They are REALLY short handed.
Wait till they get to know me. Then they'll really have tears.
As the Joker would say, "Wait'll they get a load of me."
Have a happy day everyone.
