More Toys Please!



Conner and Steve went to the mall Wednesday night. Conner was very bad, so when they got home, Steve made Conner spend the remainder of the evening in his room. He was allowed to play in his room quietly, but he wasn't allowed to come out. He was supposed to be thinking about his behavior.

Steve went in to check on him and said "Have you been thinking about why you are in your room?"

Conner said "Yes Daddy, I have thought about two things while I've been in here,
One is- I was very bad at the mall."
Steve said "Yes, What was the other thing you've been thinking about?"
Conner said "Well, I've been looking around my room tonight and realize I DON"T HAVE ENOUGH TOYS!"

Where is your Hair?

Monday, at the Doctor, Conner whispered in my ear. He asked me "why Dr. Phillips doesn't have any hair?" I chuckled. Dr. Phillips said "what is going on over there?'
I told Conner to go ahead and ask him because I knew Dr. Phillips would take the question in stride.
So, Conner was too embarrassed. So, I said, "Conner wants to ask you why you don't have any hair."
Dr. Phillips laughed, a lot, and said, 
"Well Conner, that is a good question. You see. I had a patch of hair here and a patch of hair there, and nothing in between. And when I was in high school, I decided I would never fall victim to the "Comb Over" that my dad, grandad, and all my uncles did, so I started shaving my head. "

Conner said "For Real?"
Dr. Phillips said "Yes, Conner, For Real."
Conner said "Every time it starts to grow, you shave it?"
Dr. Phillips said "Yes, everyday."

Poor Dr. Phillips. I guess Conner thought that he asked him a lot of questions, so he could ask some too.
