For Your Entertainment


Yesterday, the kids and I were running a bunch of errands picking up things for my friend who just adopted a newborn. (The baby came 5 weeks early, so she wasn't at all ready.)
After picking up fenugreek tea and honey for her, I headed next door to get some socks. The lady in line had a cartful of clothes and was just starting to unload it all on the counter. The cashier looks at all my kids and the one package of socks I'm holding. She says: Oh, you only have one thing?
Then she turns to the customer in front of me and says, smiling: She only has one thing. Wanna let her go ahead?
Cartful lady: Nope.

I laughed out loud as the cashier looked at me bewildered.

ahhhhhh!!! I'm telling! OH wait, Jesus already knows! What did your kids say? You all should have prayed for her, one by one.

I'm glad you were able to laugh about it. That was probably the best thing you could have done.

Sounds like we frequent the same store. *sigh* I'm glad you got a giggle though.

What a funny story, that just really cracked me up. How rude and inconsiderate. Also I am so excited for your baby. Only a litte over 100 days! You are almost there. Bless you.
