Is this where you want to be when Jesus comes back?!

19 Sep

My 6 yr old squirts screaming 2 yr old brother in the face with a water gun.

2 yr old brother screams even louder.

“Reilly!!!! I saw you do that even after your mother told you not to do that” – Dad yells out the window to 6 yr old.

“I know….” – Caught 6 yr old says in sad voice.

“You know?! So you either did it because you didn’t want to listen or you did it because you thought no one was looking…” – I chime in.

“Yeah, I know. I did it because I thought no one could see me…” – 6 yr old admits.

“We see everything son!” – Dad continues to explain to minion. “We are just like Jesus and can see everything! All the time. Jesus sees everything and so do we.” – Dad tries to put the fear into him and inevitably have him question the possibilities of one person being able to see everything all the time.

I just can’t contain myself at this point. Flash backs of my favorite quote from the movie, “Joe Dirt”, take over my parental responsibilities. I tried to restrain myself, but the pressure was building so I loudly blurted out:

” Boyyyyy! Is this where you want to be when Jesus comes back?! Squirting your screaming brother in the faccccce?!” – I say laughing uncontrollably.

Hubby just stares at me in disbelief that I even went there. He obviously thinks I am undermining his disciplinary actions. Oopps. Yeah….

THIS is a perfect example of how my children think KNOW they can get away with anything once mom starts laughing. Well, they are right.
