April Fool's Day

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

April Fool's Day

April Fool's Day jokes of the past! I have had some interesting experiences.

One April Fool's Day, I go upstairs to mommy.

Me: Mommy, um, I accidientally kind of got a chip in your teapot. Can you come?

Mommy: (looks flustered) How did you do that?

Me: Well, I was kind of lifting it up... (the truth) Can you just come?

Mommy: Where on the teapot?

Me: Well, kind of on the inside... Can you just come see?

Mommy: How on EARTH did you manage to get a chip on the inside of the teapot?

But she comes. And when we reach the kitchen, she is (a little) surprised to see a soggy corn chip in her teapot. So yeah...

Last year, we had april fools a little late, like a month late.  It was raining,  dad was at the grocerie store. I had the Idea to tell dad that the lights went out.  when he came back, all the lights were off and we had candles burning.  He was going to call someone about it.  We had to turn on one of the lights to convince him that it didn't happen.
