Overheard at the Store

Princess #3:  Mama, I really want that Barbie car. 

Queen's side note:  It was one of those battery operated, kid-sized Barbie cars!

Queen:  It's $250, sweetie, Mama doesn't have $250 to spend on that.

Princess #3:  Well, you could save up for it Mama.

Queen's side note:  Doncha just love it when your own words come back to roost?

King:  Do you really think that if Mama had $250 to spend, she would spend it on a Barbie car for you?

Princess #2:  NO WAY! She would spend it on yarn!!

Queen's side note:  What can I say?  They know me well!!
