| Two little boys are
sitting in the living room, watching TV with their
parents. The mother looks over at the father with a wink
and a nod toward the stairs to the bedroom. The father
"gets" the message, and they both get up and
head towards the stairs. The mother turns back to the two boys and says, "We're going upstairs for a minute. You two stay here and watch TV. We'll be right back, OK?" The two boys nod OK, and the parents take off upstairs. The oldest of the boys is old enough to know what's going on, and he gets up and tiptoes upstairs. At the top of the stairs, he peeks into his mom and dad's room and shakes his head. Back downstairs he goes, back to his little brother. "Hey, come with me," he says, and the boys tiptoe up the stairs. Halfway up, the older one turns to his brother and says, "Now I want you to keep in mind, ....this is the same woman who would bust our butts for sucking our thumbs!" |
