"You're really in bad shape? Why?"
"Cause I can't find my jersey."
"You're jersey? What jersey?"
"My soccer jersey."
"Where'd you put it?"
"I swear I put it right up here."
"On the kitchen counter?"
"Yeah"
"And it's not there?"
"No! And now I'm in bad shape."
"Did you look upstairs?"
"No! I put it right here and now it's gone."
"You put your soccer jersey on the kitchen counter and now it's gone?"
"Yeah, Dad!"
"Hmmm."
"I'm gonna look upstairs in my...uh..."
"In your closet?"
"No, Dad...yeah, in my closet."
Feet pounding up the stairs.
"Found it! No, wait, that's not it. That's my basketball jersey. Oh, here it is."
"Imagine that. A jersey in the closet. On a hanger no less. What'll they think of next."
"I don't know. Maybe one of those things that makes peanut butter sandwiches for you."
"Yeah, that would be cool. But what if you're allergic to Peanut butter?"
"Then you could load it with ham or turkey or even tuna."
"Tuna?! Yuck!"
"Yeah. I hate tuna too. Isn't that cat hilarious?"
"Yes, Preston. The cat's hilarious."
"What's allergic mean, Dad?"
"It means you can't eat something without getting sick."
"Like I'm allergic to Mom's fish?"
"No, you just don't like fish"
"But whenever I eat it I feel like throwing up. That means I'm allergic to it."
"No, that means you don't like it"
"But you said..."
"Preston, go see if your mom's awake yet."
"Ok, Dad. MOM!! Are you awake?"
Isn't life grand.

I absolutely love how kids hear a phrase and then totally interpret it to be something else or use it in a different manner. Love that!
And tell Preston I'm allergic to fish too. I get that ick feelin' too...and I've never had his momma's fish!
How did that jersey get to the closet? Life is a mystery.
rofl! looks like your son is just as funny as your daughter! what a riot!
