The Movie

Downstairs the phone rings...

Chloe answers, "Hello."

pause

She responds matter of factly, "We're watching a movie. There's a bad guy and he's going to kill the dad."

pause (Memaw, the caller, responds "What movie are you watching?")

Chloe answers, "Little House on the Prairie."

Mom, upstairs, sighs in relief...

I was wondering what kind of movie are you watching Chloe??? Aren't Grandkids the best!!!! During the same conversation I asked to speak to her Mom, and she said "We are not allowed upstairs so call her back on the phone upstairs???"

That's funny Alice. My mom was watching my kids on a Sunday afternoon and she wanted to watch a show on tv but couldn't find a church show so she told Aubree they could watch "Little Church on the Prairie". Aubree now thinks that's the real name and it's okay to watch on Sunday.

My mom is so much easier on her grandkids than she was on her own kids.
