Classic Moments with Mr. OCD

This afternoon while cooking supper, Mr. OCD sits down with E to complete his homework.  It's their little "thing" they like to do together in the afternoons.  It's always good for a few laughs.  Today's comedy du jour??

"What the heck is this?  God, I can't even do kindergarten homework!  Mama, what does this mean?"

I'm annoyed because I have to go into the other room to help.  "It says to illustrate a word that sounds like star.  See the star right there?"

*crickets*

"It means to draw a freakin' picture of something that rhymes with star."

*illumination of the proverbial light bulb*

"Ohhhhhh.  Now what's a word that rhymes with star?"

Luckily, my five year old had that one.

How the hell does he get himself dressed in the morning?  Thank God my children have me, the brain trust of the family.  I'd hate for my son to flunk kindergarten because his dad doesn't know what an illustration is.

Ahhhh...  He's just one brain cell away from drooling.

Praise Jesus, he has a government job!
