Great. What's next week?
'What kind of a tree are you?'
I'm with Kburch, I'm roadkill here.
Ok, for reals here. Let's see...hm....
Dd14 said, 'You'd be a hippopotomus.' Ds8 immediately responded, 'Nah, that'd be Dad. Mom would be that giraffe she got on email.' Dd said, 'Nooo, that isn't a real animal.' (The giraffe is this huge computer generated beast with rolls of fat since McDonald's now is in Africa and everyone there can get Big Mac's.)
Then a discussion ensued about what kinds of huge, fat animals Dh and I would be. 'Those animals with the long noses off of Ice Age 2.' (wooly mammoths) 'Rhinos...no, wait, they have ticks and Mom and Dad wouldn't like that.' Then they just seemed to settle on elephants by default.
Thanks, guys.
I don't even want to touch this whole thing now. No matter what I say I'll just know that it can't be since my kids (who know EVERYTHING) have already decreed I'm an elephant. Which, I suppose, would make me something timid, easily overpowered, and with no ability to make its own decisions. Whatever THAT animal would be.
