To laugh or not to laugh...

As a mom, there are moments throughout the day where my kids make me laugh, and that's ok. There are also moments when I want to laugh, but shouldn't. Like when they disobey and it's kind of funny but I have to discipline them or when they get scared or hurt and they are sad, but it's still kind of funny. I must not laugh. Today was one of those moments but in the first time in a looooooooooooong time, I could not contain my laughter no matter how inappropriate.

Here's the story:

Hannah is learning about Venus. We did a lava experiment today with flour and butter. After pouring hot butter on top of a custard dish into flour, you are supposed to walk away and wait a few hours.

Fast forward a few hours:

Hannah: Mom!!!!!!!! Come quick! Lillian needs you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
