A you had to be there moment

I often have to laugh at my children and their sense of humor. I guess they have one sort of like mine. Possibly why I find them so funny.

This evening I was in the kitchen cooking dinner. We had roast over noodles, green beans and a salad. I decided to open up a can of crescent rolls that I had in the fridge and toss them into the oven. As I was rolling up the little triangular pieces of dough I felt something in a few of them that concerned me. Upon further inspection I found something that resembled small beads of glass. Not sure exactly what it was, but I decided it was best to just toss them into the trash. We could live without the bread. I broke the news to the kids, and of course they had to come over and inspect the dough for themselves. Afterwards my son, Joey, decided to read the label for the rolls. He read off a few of the ingredients, which were not the problem. Then with a totally serious tone to his voice he said, "Oh it says it right on here, may contain small pieces of glass." I think my daughter almost fell for it for a moment. He sounded so serious that you could almost believe him. It's probably one of those you had to be there moments, but it made me laugh.
