One recent morning as we were getting ready for school, I heard Zany pattering through the house yelling, “The cabbages are coming! The cabbages are coming!”

Now, as I said, we were running late (that translates to at least five minutes behind the time I’m usually running late) and I wasn’t sure if we’d make it to the bus stop on time, so, being the loving patient mom I am I responded with, “I don’t care about the cabbages. Get your teeth brushed and get in the car.”

I was following closely and when I made it to the car CJ & Bug were laughing hysterically.

I for the life of me couldn’t find anything funny so I asked why they were laughing. CJ just looked at me, smirked, and replied, “She said Savages not Cabbages, mom.”

Well, duh!
