Cashier: (cheery) How are you today?
Mother: Splendid! Only one more week until freedom!
Cashier: Oh?
Mother: School starts up for [her kids' school] in a week. Freedom.
Child 1: Yeah, for you.
Child 2: Not until you hear about me being in detention.
Mother: Oh Stop! Enough of that!
Kind of reminds me of my mother when I was in elementary school. Hmm.
