Trying not to laugh....

at my four year old while in Wal-Mart yesterday. He kept touching EVERYTHING and running ahead of me....basically not listening. So, I finally stopped him, looked him in the eye and said, "I want you to hold on to this cart and if you let go, I'm going to spank you in front of all these people in this store." Brock, being the little comedian that he is, then said, "Momma, this isn't a store, it's Wal-Mart." How in the world do you keep a straight face when your children say such funny things? After turning my head to laugh a little, I then said, well you're right, it is Wal-Mart, but you better start minding. Oh, the things that little ones say...
