Room For Sale


"Hey Pierce.  How come there's a sign that says For Sale by your room?"

"My room's for sale"

"Really?  Where are you going to live if it sells?"
"It's only for sale for a little while."

"Okay, well you might want to clean it up before you put it on the market."

Disclosure:  Should you be interested in my 5 year old's room, you should know that it currently, still, has no power.  Maybe we'll get lucky today?

Still no power! You poor things!! Hopefully SOON!

Pierce is so cute! He is quite the little business man:) Once, some friends of mine visited with their 3 boys, and the oldest was busy planning which room he and his brothers would get if they moved into our house-which he apparently had taken a fancy to. I asked him where the three of us would live then. And he said "Oh! I forgot about you guys!" Kids;)

Tina Fariss Barbour said...

What an imaginative entreprenuer he is turning out to be!

Maybe today the power will be up . . . I'll hope for you!

Gail Dixon said...

Oh no! Hope y'all get power back today. Sheesh. Your five year old is too cute. Out of all my kids no one ever tried that one. :) What a creative mind.

Lovely shot, very funny.

EG CameraGirl said...

I wonder where he got the idea to sell his room! Fascinating. Hope you have power now!

Michaele said...

I must have missed something about no power - in only one room? Love the sign. When I was little, the first word I learned to spell was allowed.
As in "No one allowed". It was a perpetual sign on my door. Guess I was an introvert back then too : )

Grandma Bonnie said...

Boys can be so dear. I hope your power returns soon. It has been a while.

Sonya @ Under the Desert Sky said...

Haha! Has he had any offers?

I sure hope you get power soon! That must be miserable in the heat.

Hope your power comes back soon- I remember the freeze of 2001- we were without for ten days...it was awful.

The Cranky said...

Too cute! It reminds of the time my daughter wanted to rent out one of her dolls...but only for 5 minutes!

ROFLOL! That is too funny! I remember doing things like that when I was little!

Roan said...

LOL! Too funny! Where do kids come up with this stuff anyway. Loved your come back.

Emily said...

That cracks me up! My older daughter is going through a big 'selling things' phase too. Yesterday afternoon she was trying to sell cups of mud for $10.25 each. I tried to convince her to sell lemonade instead, but she was pretty sure what people REALLY want is sludge.

I hope your power comes back on soon!

Liz Mays said...

I'm hoping that two days after that you DO have power. Goodness!

Nancy said...

That's the cutest thing ever. A budding real estate mogul! :)

Lol. Bummer about not having power though. I hope it'll be restored soon.

Sandy said...

He is just so darn cute. He could come live with me....well for a couple of hours anyway...lol

Unknown said...

so funny! Minus the no power part of course.

An Apel a Day said...

That's so funny. I love how little minds work.

When I was little I was going to run away. I packed up a ton of my things, walked down the hill and came right back.

Debby@Just Breathe said...
