Feeding The Battery Monster
Have you ever had a conversation with one of your children that just struck you as funny? We had one of these yesterday.
TJ - I need to speak to you about my battery needs.
me - Your what?
TJ - My battery needs.
me (after I stop giggling) - What battery needs?
TJ - We need more batteries. I have to keep switching batteries from one thing to another.
me - Did you look in the refrigerator?
TJ - Yes but there are none in there.
me - We had two 8 packs.
TJ - Yeah, I know but I used them.
me (huh? 16 batteries in less than two weeks? speechless for a moment.) - Are you eating them?
TJ - You’re not funny Mom.
me - I’m not trying to be funny, I’m trying to figure out where the batteries went.
TJ - All of my stuff NEEDS batteries. I NEED batteries.
me - I NEED to know that what things we NEED and why we NEED them in order to buy them.
TJ - Oh yeah, I guess you do.
