Listening In

The family has congregated on the sofa as Ty and ABC build another family's dream house. Bedtime is just around the corner. Daddy makes the following suggestion...

Daddy: How about after the kids are in bed we have a p - i - z - z - a? (spelling the word so the kids won't know what they are missing)

Mya: Are you going to make a pizza when we're in bed?

Ooh, we are so BUSTED!

Man, I remember that day for us too...and now they even get our jokes and code talk! We'll be talking at dinner thinking they're not paying any attention and then start hearing giggles from the oldest two...totally listening and grasping each and every word!
