How to get in trouble with your mom

[Right before my nice Italian mother and I started a painting project]

MA: You should make the sign of the cross before we begin.
AD: Umm, why?
MA: To ask God to bless what we're about to do. Don't you believe in God?
AD: Not in the same way you do.
MA: Then who do you think made you?
AD: You. And. Dad.
MA: Give me the roller, please.

Don't kids say the craziest things? [giggle]

Very funny. It sounds like you knew how to get the rollers going. Bless your mom!

She's pretty great - especially for 70!

Your mom is my hero!

Is it because of her painting skills... or that really scary picture of her?

Both! To me she is a renaissance woman! And she scares the living crap out of me.... ;-)
