Yesterday, I caught my son, Bubba, standing at the top of the stairs making strange noises.
"Dude," I said. "What are you doing?"
"Spitting like a llama."
I nearly went ballistic. "What? Spitting? In the house? No way. You are going to stop that right now!"
He grinned and did it, again.
That infuriated me. I don't normally get angry, but spitting in the house crosses the line!
Bubba knew I was mad. "Don't worry, Mama. I'm not actually spitting. I'm just making it sound like I am, because it's funny."
"How do you figure that's funny?" I asked.
He pulled out his handy dandy iPad and showed me some videos of spitting llamas.
"Tell me that's not funny," he said after we viewed them.
I cracked a little smile. "Okay, maybe they're just a little funny. But you'd better not actually spit like them!"
He agreed, and we have a truce.
Here's a video in case you want to get your giggle of the day:
