I had a business trip Monday and Tuesday returning home late Tuesday night. Monday on my way to dinner I noticed I had a vmail on my phone. Vmail is from my 6.5 yr old daughters nurse at school....short version of her message "Hi Mrs.____ this is the nurse at __________elementary school. I wanted to give you a heads up that Sydnee was in my office today due to she some how got her tongue stuck in her water bottle"...

I had to replay the message for the entire car I was laughing so hard. So I call home and talk to my baby girl and she says "I'm not sure how it happened but it wasn't my fault, my tongue was just wondering around"...

Have your kids gotten themselves into some sort of "predicament" that you really just cannot figure out how they did it?

What can I do next?

One time when my older brother and I were kids, we were digging holes in the back yard, and I somehow chopped him right on the top of the head with the garden hoe. He's 32 now and still has the bald spot where the scar is. And I have never lived that down!

Son #1 (16) woke up sick, went back to bed.

Son #2 (14) was sick the night before so I knew he'd be staying home from school again, didn't wake him up.

While I was driving my daughter to school, my cell rang. Bout 2 mins after that we reached the school parking lot, so I checked the message.

It was son #2. In a whispery terrified breathless voice, he was saying...OMG Mom, I think there's someone in the house! I just heard someone go in the bathroom downstairs, what should I DOOOO?!!!!!

I put it on speaker phone so my daughter could hear. We laughed and laughed. Poor kid will never live it down.

I sent him a text, it's your brother, Dan, please don't call 911.

Her tongue was wandering!!!! HAHAHA. Good thing she didn't suck on a cup for an hour like I did at around 8 and pulled all the blood to them making them about 5 times the regular size, then say my brother made me do it. He was 2 years younger at the time. PLUS that breaks blood vessels and capularies too, and gives you a weeks worth of bruise on the entire lower face. Cant hide than kinda stupid!! I wore it like a badge of shame.

My 5 year old stuck her head in a cane chair seat that was broken, at a garage sale. She normally is very good about not leaving my side. I was at a garage sale there were kids her age there. They wanted her to play, I thought why not. I look at some clothes and no kidding, in the 10 minutes time I am looking at clothes I can hear her voice, and at one point I realize she is saying "my head is stuck" Curious I peek around the rack to see her standing bent over, with her head in the busted seat of the chair. So not only is she in a weird position, she can just pull her head out due to the cane that is stuck downwards, and its poking into her neck. She's stuck like a raccoon in a coin log trap. Anyway, the owners had to help me clip the cane around her neck and wiggle her head out. Needless to say I got to know those people far more than I wanted too.

Not my kids, but ME! While camping about 7 years ago, I had a few drinks. My husband went to get firewood and I somehow got myself entangled in a camping chair. While trying to get out of it, I fell over and landed in the firepit and busted my arm on the edge of it. Thanfully, my hubby was on his way over and saw the whole thing and pulled me out before I killed myself! Lol.

That is hilarious! How? I mean... How? LOL Love it!

My nephew when he was about 2 1/2 was at our house for the day. I was cleaning up, and all the sudden I hear a little voice call out: Help meeee, Somebody PLEASE help meee???

I go into the laundry room and there he was tangled up in his stroller! I guess he wanted to go for a walk but got stuck. I laughed so hard, poor little guy calling for someone to please help him. It was so adorable!

When my son was about 2 I was doing the dishes and he decided he was big enough to climb over the gate on our stairs to go wake up his sister from her nap. About 3 min later i realize it is way to quiet and go to look for him. He is stuck perched on top of the swinging gate (aparently he had managed to unlock it while trying to climb over) holding on to both sides for dear life. Took me a minute ot control my laughter before i could get him down (thank you for gates that screw mount into the wall and that he was not a very heavy kid at that age)

LOL, that's a great one!! I got the following text last month from school (my daughter is in high school btw):

"There's a hole in the butt of my jeans and I'm wearing a thong, so I need new jeans or something to wear. Please."

All the girls in my office and I thought it was hilarious, though my 15 yo didn't see the humor in it.
