A funny thing happend to me while I was in the Spotlight store the other day. Spotlight (for you lucky people who have never been to one) is a huge craft and fabric shop that I’m certain was designed to teach husbands how to love their wives like Christ loved the Church.
I was enduring Spotlight with wife and my four kids, when my youngest daughter (4 months off 2 years old) decided to run around the store and disrupt the serene atmosphere. While Pasiley Jade was in ‘laa laa land’ caressing all the fabrics (why do women have to touch everything they see in shops?) I scooped up my runaway daughter and saved the day.
Then my adroable little daughter spoke, or rather screamed one word, over and over again.
HELP!
We still don’t know where she learned the word (perhaps from Kid’s Against Crime?), but all of a sudden there I was restraining my own daughter, looking like a childnapper. If Paisley Jade hadn’t come to my rescue, and validated that she was really my daughter… I don’t know what would have happened.
Goodtimes.
hahaha – that was the funniest moment I have ever had in a store with you! Must go to Spotlight again sometime together!
