365 Photo Challenge Day 135: Communication Fail

Come on Ma!

Me: Chicky, put your toys away.

Chicky: Okay, Mama.

(walking towards the steps)

Me: Chicky, I said put your toys away.

Chicky: I did!

Me: I meant put them in the playroom, not on the steps.

Chicky: But they are out of the living room.

Me: I can't win!

Or maybe the problem really isn't communication, maybe it's lack of listening.

I'm sorry what did you say?! 

Chicky: Mom, when's the Jello gonna be ready?

Me: It won't be ready till after supper.

Ducky: What did you say about Ninjago?!

Me: I didn't say Ninjago Ducky, I said Jello.

Chicky: THE JELLO IS READY!!

Me: No it's not, it will be ready after supper.

Ducky: We are having Jello for supper?!

Me: Sigh!
