Well, more correctly Jon stole it. But I guess since I was distracting the employees with a screaming Ellie and fit throwing Katie technically I'm an accomplice, and they'll send you to jail for almost holding a horse. Just look at poor Edmund Spangler. The world's largest yellow 59 cent bag and almost holding a horse? They're practically the same thing people! So we took off, blew the joint, hit the road, knocked over that peanut stand, jumped the train (we actually did this one literally) and ended up here:
Where I found the PERFECT book!!!
But, I didn't buy it* because I don't need these kind of images in my head:

I don't know how many crimes I have committed while trying to deal with tantruming children. I'm sure there are amnesty laws for cases like that.
ReplyDeleteAmnesty IN Powell's? I could get used to a life of crime for that!
ReplyDeleteSamantha walked out with a toothbrush once when she was really little and we were letting her carry it to stop her from screaming. I don't think its a legal defense but I'm sure its understandable.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED the book.....
Did you buy it? Did you rip out the scary parts and mail it to me?? :)
