I fixed the kids some late breakfast this morning, & after a while they wanted to just go & play. I told them they needed to finish their food, but then Jadon complained, "My stomach hurts." I didn't make a big deal of it since I figured he meant he felt uncomfortably full, but then Evangelina chimed in with her own (embellished) moaning, "My stomach hurts... My head hurts..."
We take lying seriously in our family, so when Evangelina said that second part, I gave her a stern look that seemed to scare her into speaking the truth...
"...but not right now."
