Fat Albert's The Tooth Fairy

During the summer months, we have the pleasure of our two boys, Taylor and Alex, spending more time with us. This summer will be no exception. This means that during the day, they will stay with their Grandma Brown while me and Jerry are at work. It also means they have to get up at the crack of dawn, dressed and ready to ride with me at 7:15 so I can deliver them to her door on my way to work. Even when we manage to get them to bed at a decent hour, this is not an easy task to complete.

This morning they were told a half dozen times to wake up and great dressed. Even as we were rushing out at 7:25 (late as usual) they were putting on their socks and shoes as we climbed into Bluebell for the trek to Grandma's. The conversation is always a toss up depending on how awake they are.

Listed below are just some random comments that were made on the short 15 minute drive from LaVergne to Nolensville. These are in no certain order and I'll leave it up to you to figure out which child said what.

Drive Time Quotes of the Day:

** I'm so sleepy my clothes are tired.

** Clothes are inanimate, dummy.

** I think I have a lose tooth and I predict today I will lose it.

** I like losing teeth, it means money to me.

** Who do you think the tooth fairy really is?

** Fat Albert is the tooth fairy.

** Fat Albert is too fat for wings.

** That's angel discrimination.

** I thought only girls could be fairies.

** No....there are lots of guys who are fairies too.

** Bill Cosby is so old, he's probably ready to die.

** I thought he WAS dead.

** But Miss Tracey, you're a pretty fat; Fat Albert is a butt ugly fat.

** I think I'm going to give Grandma one more grey hair today.

** Me, Brandon and Andrew are going to be killing one another all day.

** Where do you think the color blue comes from?

** I think I have gas this morning.

** Whatever you do, point it away from me.

And there you have it! The only thing that will top this is the drive home this afternoon!

I could hear that converation line by line. Maybe I missed that epsiode, but when was Fat Albert ever the tooth fairy?

TOO FUNNY. And I know who said what, but what the hell are either of them calling you fat for and living to tell about it. And I can see every gray hair on Grandmas head by the end of the day.
