Last Friday Lainey and I went out to lunch before we did our marathon grocery shopping run. I was busy formulating my plan of attack for the store, and she was busy coloring when she suddenly stopped and excitedly said:
“Look Mom! NO penguins allowed in here!”
What? Penguins? We don’t live in the zoo Antarctica, so I was pretty sure there was no need for signage to keep penguins out. She was adamant though, pointing at a sign and exclaiming:
“See! No. Penguins. Allowed. In. Here!”
Well, I’ll be damned, she was right. Sort of. When I told her I thought the sign meant “No Smoking,” she went and took a closer look. When she came back she declared us both right and proudly stated “Mom, it must mean no smoking penguins allowed.”
I almost think that having a penguin free grocery store is as important as a smoke free grocery store.
ReplyDeleteLainey is too funny.
Oh my gosh...that is too funny! :)
ReplyDeleteLOL! That's cute!
ReplyDeleteUgh. Those smoking penguins are such a menace to society.
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious. It's great that you have a record of all the cute little things that we would otherwise forget.
ReplyDeleteAdorable! Those smoking penguins sure are obnoxious!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't smoke, but I think I would be tempted to light one up just to challenge that sign. "What?! It doesn't say No Smoking anywhere, now does it? It just says No Penguins. Show me where it says No Smoking. Yah...that's right...whatcha' gonna do about it, Biatch!"
ReplyDeleteOr something like that.
Ahh! I love it. Kids can be so literal sometimes:)
