Headline: Little Philosophers Avoid Chores. Mom in Stitches.

Chores are always a battle around here. Today I was tired of telling the kids to clean (after the first 100 times you tell them, it gets old.), so I summoned up my best "Mean Mommy" voice and declared, "You clean your rooms RIGHT NOW."

As I stormed off into the other room, I heard them start debating.
Ari: "When is 'right now' anyway? Like, 'right now' isn't 'right now' anymore by the time you say it."
Christian: "Yeah, it's totally a relative time frame. How are we supposed to know when to start?"

If I wasn't laughing so hard from the hallway, they'd have been in deep trouble.
