Is there any hope for me?

Conversation this AM while making my bed

Marshall: Mommy, did you know this carpet is a swirly mud hole?

Mommy: No, I didn't realize that.

Marshall: And there are swirly mudhole worms that live in it....and they eat people.

Mommy: Well I don't want to be eaten by any swirly mudhole worms.


And here it is.....the clincher....spoken in his most serious, grave voice.


Marshall: Well, all we can do is hope.
