A blizzard IN the car
| My family took a trip to KC this weekend. It was a fun little get away with a field trip involved of course. We were about an hour down the road, KC is about 3 hours away, and I noticed the air in the car (we drive a ford Explorer with a third row seat) began to get linty. Then the amount of white lint in the air increased dramatically in only about 10 seconds. I was waving my hand saying "what is this, what is going on." Upon closer examination I found the lint to be white feathers and source to be my giggling 6 year old in the third row seat. I should have known better. She had been so quite for so long and that is never good news with her. She had picked at the seam on her feather pillow until she created a 3 or 4 inch hole. Then she gleefully reached her little hand in and produced the fluffy white clouds that were quickly caught in the air flow of the car. Soon the clouds filled the car and she continued to produce them until we discovered her new game. My husband rolled dow the windows in hopes to clear the air. I think that just caused the feather to fly around even more. We were all laughing so hard I was afraid we were going to get feathers caught in our throats.
You never know what kids are going to do. Especially my middle daughter. She is just always up so something. I couldn't help but laugh when I told her that was naughty. She was proud of her self for providing such great entertainment. I put her pillow back in the pillow case with the hole toward the back. She hasn't pulled out any more feathers but I think I will be cleaning them out of the car for months. |
