Tuesday Text: Parentexting™

Some bona-fide parenting:
Did he seriously ask me where the San Francisco marathon was?
Is this a warning that he doesn't go to class much?
And....
Sick Baby Bird:

Apparently not that sick....

GAH!

Those kids of yours are so funny...even when they really aren't trying to be.

Caution/Lisa said...

Was a t.v. on somewhere when he asked where San Fran was? The male mono-focus thing is such a bother.

Hope Baby Bird is doing better!

Tammy said...

Classic! Sick, but not that sick. I get that all the time with my daughter!

Country Girl said...

So does this mean that the Boston Marathon is in Boston?! What a revelation.
Hope the bird feels better soon.

Love the San Francisco comment - that would be something mine would say!

I'm in training for the Hospital Hill half-marathon here in Kansas City...I'm going to die. Gah.

Hilary said...

"Where?" lol.. he meant "When?" didn't he? :)

Hope your girl is feeling better soon.

Trisha said...

You are such a great text-motherer!

Unknown said...

: ) Of course she didn't have time for the Dr. Who ever has time for the dr.?

We are having another snow day in the city : ) so your son probably doesn't have college again. Hope he has fun! : )

You make me feel so much better. I now know my kids are mostly normal.

Keetha said...

Gah is right! That all sounds so very familiar, from my college days.

Laura~peach~ said...

oh to have such normal conversations......
giggles love it :)

Grandmother Mary said...

Apart from the parenting part, hooray for the 1/2 marathon part! Ours (my daughter and me) is in FL on Feb 13 and I'm psyched.

Debbie said...

Now if it were reversed....Augie sick and Baby Bird discussing marathon...

I'm still in awe of this running thing.

Chesapeake Bay Woman said...

He was only half listening. I'm going to bet a girl was involved. Or rugby. (I'm running away now. Or ducking for cover.)

Hope your daughter feels better. She can get a cheap digital thermometer from the dollar store to keep handy.

Although really it's all in how you feel. If you feel crappy and you have no temperature, you still feel crappy.

These are some profound statements...where is that San Francisco marathon again?

I Am Woody said...

So,...um...where is the San Francisco marathon again? ;)

Flea said...

Oh geez. Poor kid.

Daryl said...

Annie said it

Barbara said...

Oh boy does this sound familiar!

Deborah said...

Just came across your blog and had to laugh at the txt exchange...i never hear from my kids at college unless they have a problem, not that they take my advice they just want someone to feel sorry for them i think. lol :)
