Attack of the Tomatoes

So on Friday evening at about 7:15 we were making some sugar cookies. Justin was helping me with the cookie cutters. We were making hearts, butterflies, bunny rabbits, bells (for dad), and ghosts (sometimes called holy ghosts). Suddenly there was a siren. Justin could tell that this was not an emergency vehicle siren so he asked what it was. An approximate recreation of our conversation follows.
J: "What is that noise mom?"
M: "It's the tornado siren."
J: "A tomato siren? What is a tomato siren?"
M: "Not a tomato siren a tornado siren."
J: "oh ok- Dad! I want to see the tormato siren too!"
We tried unsuccessfully to get Justin to say tornado. Fortunately the siren stopped (it was just a test as we are getting closer to tornado season) and we were able to move on.

That is hilarious. I certainly don't miss tornado's and their sirens.
