This morning I was pulled out of a dead sleep by Ty explaining to me that the hospital had burned down during the night. "What?! Was anybody hurt? Man, I guess I'm going to have to find a job."
All to end to the tune of ---APRIL FOOLS!!!
So then we began to plan how to best fool our sweet unsuspecting kids. Kobe and Clay were brought to a very solemn meeting this morning to tell them we will not put up with their fighting any longer. We had decided that they would play with each other and ONLY each other for one month. No friends, no snowmobiling, no cousins, etc.... Boy! that raised some cain! Ha! Ha! Ha! APRIL FOOLS!!
Kylie was still asleep at this point and so, still unsuspecting. I enlisted Kobe's help to prank Kylie. At breakfast I very sadly informed Kylie that we would not be able to afford the chicken coop or chickens this year (what with the economy sinking in the toilet and all). Kobe did his very best to look appropriately morose. (Good Job, Kobe!)
I thought Kylie would start to protest, but instead, promptly began to CRY! Yikes! It took me 30 whole minutes to stop the flood and explain that it was April Fools' Day and that we really were going to have a chicken coop and cute little baby chickens. Good Grief! Somebody serve up the BAD MOTHER OF THE YEAR AWARD , I'm waiting.

Poor Kylie. I agree you deserve an award. But at least you did something for April Fool's Day this year. I think I just told my kids there was a spider. The day passed pretty much unnoticed. Thank you for sharing the fun in your household.
That is awesome!
I loved all of that...and I wish I would have thought of even one thing to do. I guess there's always next year...
Did you get Ty?
