In our little world with three growing boys, there's ALWAYS SOMETHING to smile about...
but usually only after we've given the initial blank stare with mouth WIDE open and no words coming out thinking "WHERE in the world did THAT come from!?!"

and then had a few moments to actually think it through...

What's For Dinner? Armpits!?!

Our dinner discussion tonight.

Child #2:  Our Sunday School teacher today told us that it is impossible to lick your armpits.
Child #1:  No it's not.
[raising his arm in an attempt]
Child #2:  Yes it is.
Husband:  Actually, it's not.  See?
[actually putting down his fork in an effort to convince this S.S. Teacher wrong]
Child #3:  I want to try.
[joining his father]
Me:  Let's not really try.
Grandma:  Try it!
Me:  You're not helping, mom.
Child #1:  I can almost do it.
Child #2:  You can not.  Nobody can.
Me:  Seriously, guys.  We're eating dinner.
[glancing around to see all four men trying to lick their armpits]

I'm not quite sure how it all ended, but I'm pretty certain I remember slowly and ever-so-dramatically burying my head into my arms as they rest upon the table.
