More Smiles

Big Bro was attempting to fool his dad tonight over a game of checkers.

Daddy asked him to do "Cabbage, Cabbage, Cabbage".

(I'm sure that those of you outside of my loopy family have no idea what this means but it's a little trick we use to tell if one is being honest. The accused is supposed to hold out his thumb and say cabbage three times without smiling.)

To this request Bro replied, "Hold on. I have to cool off my smile first."

As the story was relayed later that evening Bro started giggling.

Sis stated seriously, "There goes his laughing temper again."
