A heartbreaker

I just have to post this story, because it totally makes me laugh every time I think about it!

A funny story for you...Lehman & Jillaine were at Rick & Paula's yesterday doing something…a secret from me! (*it was a picture frame Christmas present) When they came home, they said they had so much fun and were quite excited. Jillaine said that they had tomato soup for lunch but that it got burnt. Lehman pipes up, “Yeah, and I ate just enough to be polite.” I laughed because he hates tomato soup at the best of times. Last night at Bible study I thanked them for having the kids over and relayed that they had a good time. Paula says, “ So you still love me for feeding your kids burnt soup.” I laughed and said it happens to everyone. She said she had asked Jillaine has your mother ever fed you burnt food. Jillaine says "Yep we burnt mushroom soup once and since it was 3 cans she made us eat it." So Paula said "well this is 3 cans so I guess we’ll eat it!" Lehman pipes up, “Oh it’s fine, burnt soup is one of my favourites!” Anyhow they ate and at the end of the meal Lehman says, “Could I have a drink please?” She said would you like water or ice tea? He says I ‘ll have water please. She said would you like ice tea? , remembering the pop incident with Rick at Tim Horton’s in her head a few weeks ago, and he says “Oh, yes please!” Rick & Paula thought it was hilarious.

Dad talked to Lehman this morning before going to work about him having good manners and he said, “Well what else could I say without breaking her heart?”
