(son at computer typing up homework assignment)
SON: Hey, how do you spell “Table of Contents?”
ME: T-A-B-L---
SON: MOM! I know!
ME: C-O-N-T
SON: MOM! I was the spelling bee champ!
ME: ..E-N-T----
SON: Stop spelling! I was the spelling bee champ! I know how to spell!!
ME: *scratches head* But you ASKED me…
SON: *looks at me with confused face* What?
ME: Hey, what time is it?
SON: It's...7:54pm
ME:
What kind of scratch-your-head moments have you had lately?

hahaha way to own that conversation Rose!!
I think your son channeled my son (16)...
Hahahahahahaha
Sounds exactly like my brother. He's 13 and a good 9 years younger than myself. You'd think he'd take advantage of the sister with the English degree.
I love how you handled that!!
AHAHA! Great comeback!
thanks for the laugh!
That's so funny! Did he need you to spell "of"??? hahahaha.
This conversation sounds just like me and my thirteen year old son on the way to school everyday!
Funny.
My moments are usually when asking them questions while they watch tv--our children are not multi-taskers.
At least our kids give me plenty of blog post ideas.
classic... haha
I absolutely loved this! Oh the joyful nonsensical talks I shared with my nephews...
I loved your art by the way! =)
Bahaha. I have conversations like this with myself all the time.
