Missus: I know! Let me just check everybody’s name off here…oh. Oh, wait a minute.

Mister: What? What’s wrong?

Missus: I think Tom and Sharon have three kids, don’t they? Two girls and a boy?

Mister: Hunh. Let’s see, there’s Dakota, Cody, and who else?

Missus: Montana.

Mister: Agh! You’re right! Montana! Damn! I thought we could go the next three weeks without setting foot in a mall.

Missus: I’ll start the car.

Mister: Wait, wait. Maybe we could just get her one of these Bissell Barbie Real Vacuums. Look, it’s pink with flowers and stuff on it. It’s also a real cordless, rechargeable sweeper. Says here it’s got a rotating brush, a washable filter, and it converts to a hand vac. Sounds pretty good.

Missus: There’s just one problem. Montana’s only eighteen months old.

Mister: Ah, she’ll grow into it. Where’s the credit card?
