Fireproof Lockers A Must

On the way home from school today, I had a hilarious conversation with my ten year old daughter Mary Katherine (also known as MK) which left me in stitches.  Went something like this:

Me: MK, how much homework do you have?

MK: Oh I have about 3 things.  (twiddling hair, looking out window).  One isn’t due until Monday though so I can wait a bit.


Me: Why not do it tonight so you have the weekend off?


MK: (quiet for a second then says)  you know that’s not a half bad idea.


Me: Well imagine that.  I’m glad I come up with some good ideas now and again


MK: I’ll do it and then leave it in school in my locker


Me: Why your locker?


MK: Because our house or school may catch fire and that way my homework will be safe.  You know we have fireproof lockers.


Me: Our house or school catch on fire?  Why on earth would that happen?  I hope that never happens at either place!


MK: Me neither but Mrs. Grandela (her teacher) is always telling us she’s going to light a fire under us to get us moving so I thought there was a possibility.


I almost wrecked I was laughing so hard.  Kids!
