Following with Exactness

This morning when I went into the boys bedroom, I noticed Johnny laying in bed with nothing on. I asked Johnny where his clothes went. Johnny said that I did not give him time to put them on last night. I felt rather confused and asked him what he was talking about. He reminded me that when he got out of the bathtub last night I told him that he had to go straight to bed. I laughed a bit and told him that I still meant for him to put his pajamas on. (I wonder if he was cold last night??)

I need to make a history note with this story. There is no school today and tomorrow, so yesterday after school I let the kids watch a movie and play computer games. I asked Johnny to feed the cats three times before he did. I also asked him to take a bath about a half hour after dinner, which he ignored. So when I realized at 9:15 last night that he still had not taken his bath, I told him that he was not going to play computer games for one day. I said he lost that privilege because he ignored everything I told him to do because of computer games. So he took me very seriously when I told him to get straight to bed at 9:45.

It sounds like something Jeremy would do as a joke to make his mom either laugh or cry... sometimes I'm not sure which one he's trying for!
