Imagine for a moment with me that while Mark was snoozing away in his bed, during nap time, something bad happened to his window shade. Now imagine, during the same nap time, there was a great bumping and thumping heard by the parents on the first floor. Think elephants, lions, tigers, bears and maybe whales. Got that? Good. Now imagine upon entering Mark's room at the conclusion of nap time Mark says this statement to his mother. "Mom, my shade broke. But my animals are working on it. They'll have it fixed in no time." Now imagine how hard it was to keep a smile off my face when I walked in and saw not less than fifty (yes, there are that many of them) elephants, lions, tigers, bears and whales gathered in a circle all facing the window.
How am I supposed to discipline a little boy who makes me laugh all day? I can't. I just can't.
For the record, they couldn't fix it. I did though.

That - Is - Hilarious! How sweet! Thanks for sharing the story! This seems to be an inherited family tactic. My Mom used to get her Mom (Mark’s Great-Great-Grandma Knight) to laugh whenever she attempted to discipline her. I can’t remember for sure but I think Grandma told me that she used to say "You wouldn’t spank your little pal would you?"
Well, I think most everything he does is hilarious of course, but I don't care who you are - that's funny!
the child is a genius I tell you a genius!
How can anybody not love little boys? They see the world completely different from the rest of the world.
I need to borrow that. I'll get a bunch of animals at work. Next time my boss wants an explanation about something mysteriously gone wrong, I'm going to tell him my animals are fixing it. :)

He's so smart. Make up his story and back it up too. I love it!
Bwahahahaha! What a cute kid. Sounds like those critters need some training, though, if they plan on fixing things in the future.
