Speaker 1: Misspelling with Tori Spelling and iHeartRadio podcast. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: you guys, it's a whole new week, whole new beginning
Speaker 1: till the next holiday. They just come at rapid fire
Speaker 1: till the new year, don't they. So the last couple
Speaker 1: of weeks it's been I feel like I keep talking
Speaker 1: about this, but tis the season, and here it's going
Speaker 1: around everywhere. My kids have been sick, but it's like
Speaker 1: they got sick again. I'm only bringing this up because
Speaker 1: it's an interesting pattern of events that lead the way
Speaker 1: in this story. Now, this happened last week, so the
Speaker 1: timeline might be off slightly from my memory, but.
Speaker 2: Hang on, keep up. Here we go.
Speaker 1: Okay, so Bo gets sick and are pediatrician who I love,
Speaker 1: Doctor Julia.
Speaker 2: We call her doctor Julia. Last name is Breckner.
Speaker 1: I want to bring Bowen because he is sick and
Speaker 1: I want her to swab him for you know, it's
Speaker 1: not just COVID anymore. They test for Oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: what do they do. It's like the flu, the I
Speaker 1: don't know something virus. There's a million different viruses and
Speaker 1: bacterias going around at the schools.
Speaker 2: You can't keep up.
Speaker 1: So I want to bring him in to see what
Speaker 1: he has and if he needs antibiotics, which I hate
Speaker 1: giving that, but if he needs it. He was getting worse.
Speaker 1: So I go to make it a sick day, same
Speaker 1: sick day appointment. And when I reach out, they say, oh,
Speaker 1: this is the one day that doctor Julia is not here,
Speaker 1: but her brother is here, doctor Dany, who the kids
Speaker 1: have gone to before. They're comfortable with him. I was like, great,
Speaker 1: years ago they.
Speaker 2: Went to him.
Speaker 1: So I take Bo and we go to doctor Danny's office.
Speaker 1: And when we get in there, I said, Bo, this
Speaker 1: is doctor Danny. You went to him a long time ago.
Speaker 1: He's doctor Julia's brother. You'll be really comfortable with him.
Speaker 1: And he says to me, your friends with Jess And
Speaker 1: I said, Jess ammer my best friend. Yes, and he
Speaker 1: said so my daughter is best friends with her daughter, Isabella.
Speaker 2: And then it was like.
Speaker 1: You know when things come back that you are so
Speaker 1: busy in life that you don't take notice of, but
Speaker 1: then when it comes back up, they're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: now I remember all that. So then I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's right. And he said, yes, our daughters had their
Speaker 1: birthday party together this year. And I said, I know,
Speaker 1: I was so looking forward to coming and both coming
Speaker 1: and I got sick so I couldn't go, And he said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I wish you had been able to come because my
Speaker 1: mother in law. And then I remember Jess had told
Speaker 1: me this like a year ago, missus Christopher. She was
Speaker 1: your teacher in school in fourth grade. And I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: my god, that's right. Jess did tell me. And he's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: do you remember her? And I'm like, do I remember her?
Speaker 1: She changed my life. I will forever remember her because
Speaker 1: she's one of those teachers that we've all had that
Speaker 1: stands out to you and for me, at least in
Speaker 1: my experience, school was really challenging. My takeaway from school
Speaker 1: as an adult was I loved the social experiences. I
Speaker 1: loved some of the teachers. I loved that that was
Speaker 1: my educational journey, But I hate that that was my
Speaker 1: educational journey at the same time, back when I went
Speaker 1: to school, I feel like it's so different now, but
Speaker 1: kind of not. Now they are letting kids kind of
Speaker 1: lead with their creative passions. Well the more school like,
Speaker 1: that's more a private school thing. So my kids are
Speaker 1: in the public school system, so it's still I feel like,
Speaker 1: not quite there yet, but heading in that direction. But definitely,
Speaker 1: when I was young, whether it was public school or
Speaker 1: private school, it was like academic everyone got put into
Speaker 1: a box basically. And so I out of high school
Speaker 1: thinking I'm just gonna say it. I was really done,
Speaker 1: and I was like wow, and that stuck with me,
Speaker 1: like the fact that I had to take math three times,
Speaker 1: the fact that I was shamed in like an eleventh
Speaker 1: grader sitting in a freshman class, like oh like it
Speaker 1: just and then the more I got nervous about it,
Speaker 1: the worse I would do and the less I would
Speaker 1: absorb of the information. And I think I'm just making excuses.
Speaker 1: I'm just not good at math, Like I my second
Speaker 1: grader bo like his math. I look at and I freeze.
Speaker 1: But oh no, it's not that I'm not good at math.
Speaker 1: I think I freeze because of my trauma, Like my
Speaker 1: school experienced trauma. My brain just sees math and I'm like,
Speaker 1: they're all gonna laugh at you.
Speaker 2: That was a reference from Carrie.
Speaker 1: Anyway, So yeah, so what was I saying? Oh but
Speaker 1: missus Christopher was one of those teachers that really made
Speaker 1: me feel good about myself. And gave me confidence in myself,
Speaker 1: whereas a lot of my elementary and high school experience
Speaker 1: didn't provide that safe, nurturing place for me, if that
Speaker 1: makes sense. In high school, in both schools, like in elementary,
Speaker 1: in high school, like drama was my thing. I was
Speaker 1: very into theater and doing all that. That was kind
Speaker 1: of my outlet. And then I would take my love
Speaker 1: of that and entertain my friend groups. Like this is
Speaker 1: going to be no shocker to anyone, but I was
Speaker 1: friends with everybody.
Speaker 2: Of course, there's.
Speaker 1: Always clicks, but I could kind of be in my
Speaker 1: friend group but easily and maneuver in and out to
Speaker 1: get along with everybody, and that was that's a skill.
Speaker 1: But I just like people for the most part. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I would take like what I learned in theater class,
Speaker 1: and I loved Ms Nichols in high school. She was
Speaker 1: Wanda Nichols, my drama teacher. I would take the love
Speaker 1: of that and like during lunch and Resa's like I
Speaker 1: would do characters for people and make them laugh and
Speaker 1: like when we had a lot of fun, and so
Speaker 1: that was the part I really loved. But again, like
Speaker 1: I definitely came out of high school thinking I'm not
Speaker 1: a smart girl. I'm a funny girl. I'm a kind girl,
Speaker 1: but I don't have educational smarts. That's not a word
Speaker 1: or phrase, but that's what just came out. But so
Speaker 1: it's taken me along time to really realize that I
Speaker 1: am quite bright.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I said it out about.
Speaker 1: Oh with a lump in my throat, swallowing hard as
Speaker 1: I said that. Let me just cough it out. I'm
Speaker 1: smart their world. Oh that felt better. But anyway, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go back to the story. But missus Christopher was
Speaker 1: that kind teacher that always believed in me. Perhaps she
Speaker 1: I don't really remember, but took extra time to make
Speaker 1: me feel safe, nurtured, encourage me, build my confidence when
Speaker 1: it was low. And that's a really special thing that
Speaker 1: stayed with me my entire life. Okay, so going back
Speaker 1: to the story, Doctor Danny, we're at the pediatrician.
Speaker 2: Oh, sorry, it's a wild ride. You guys with me
Speaker 2: so far?
Speaker 1: So I say, yes, Oh my gosh, please give her
Speaker 1: my love, and he.
Speaker 2: Said I will.
Speaker 1: So I take bow and we are driving home and
Speaker 1: I say to my kids, oh my gosh, it's late.
Speaker 1: I don't think I can cook dinner tonight, want me
Speaker 1: to pick up food? And they're like, yeah, sushi. And
Speaker 1: for the first time, Bo loves sushi. He could eat
Speaker 1: sushi every day at night. He's truly my child. He's like,
Speaker 1: I don't really feel like sushi. I'm like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: you really are sick.
Speaker 2: Wow, Okay.
Speaker 1: So I say to him, what would you feel like,
Speaker 1: I'll pick up food and he says, oh, mom, I
Speaker 1: feel like lamb chops. What like what eight year old
Speaker 1: says that? And honestly, like, well, I grew up eating
Speaker 1: lamb chops. Oh my gosh, I love them so much.
Speaker 1: Like in our house we always had lamb chops, but
Speaker 1: it's not a common thing like in our world now,
Speaker 1: like like I'm cooking lamb chops weekly, even though this reminds.
Speaker 2: Me I want to cook lamb chops. But I say okay.
Speaker 1: And then do you guys know when you eat lamb
Speaker 1: chops and they have those little panties, those little paper
Speaker 1: ruffle panties.
Speaker 2: They put on the end of it where the end
Speaker 2: doesn't eat lambs. So she's gonna be.
Speaker 3: Like, nope, nope, nope, nope.
Speaker 1: Ah man, Eastern I'll know this Easton, You know the panties.
Speaker 2: What what.
Speaker 1: You know, the little ruffle panties that the paper they
Speaker 1: put on the end of lamb chops so that you
Speaker 1: don't like, quote unquote grease your hands up when you
Speaker 1: hold them, even though it's not it's meant to be
Speaker 1: held to eat at a restaurant.
Speaker 2: I know those, okay too well, So.
Speaker 1: Anyway, mint jelly. Nothing beats old school mint jelly with
Speaker 1: lamb chops. Anyway, Bo says this, so I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: let's deal with it.
Speaker 2: When we get home.
Speaker 1: As we're driving home, we drive past one of my
Speaker 1: favorite restaurants, Monty's Monty's Steakhouse. My dog Monty is actually
Speaker 1: named after Monty's. I've been going to monty since I
Speaker 1: was a kid. They had three locations. We go to
Speaker 1: the one in the Valley now, but growing up, there
Speaker 1: was one in Westwood, so I always went there, went
Speaker 1: with my family, then went with my friends and I think, oh, wait, Easton.
Speaker 2: There's one in Pasadena, Yes, or was.
Speaker 3: Checking? I think there is.
Speaker 2: I think the.
Speaker 1: Original one was there, and I feel like they closed
Speaker 1: it down.
Speaker 4: Anyway, it closed after sixty six years in two thousand
Speaker 4: and seven.
Speaker 1: Wow, yes, but it was I know, and they took
Speaker 1: the original boost and they actually brought it to the
Speaker 1: Woodland Hills one one. So that's Monty's in a nutshell,
Speaker 1: Like who names their dog after a steakhouse?
Speaker 2: Me? It's that good.
Speaker 1: And it just holds so many family memories, friend memories
Speaker 1: and my kids. I have been bringing my kids there
Speaker 1: since they were little, and yeah, it's.
Speaker 2: Just like it's tradition. So we pass.
Speaker 1: It and I'm like Monty's, Oh my gosh, we haven't
Speaker 1: eaten there in a long time. Like my kid's birthdays,
Speaker 1: we go there. Like it's Liam's favorite. So every year
Speaker 1: for his birthday we go to Monty's. Like his eighteenth birthday,
Speaker 1: we went to dinner with our family and his best
Speaker 1: friends for his birthday. So we haven't been there since
Speaker 1: March thirteenth. Okay, So I was like, oh, okay Monty's.
Speaker 1: Oh I miss Monty's. Oh okay, I can pick up
Speaker 1: lamb chops. This sounds excessive, but it can be done.
Speaker 1: And then I get home and I'm like, guys, who
Speaker 1: feels like lamb chops?
Speaker 2: Anyone want Monty's. They're like oh yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, oh, you know what I was like bo,
Speaker 1: do you want me to pick it up or do
Speaker 1: you want to go? And he wanted to go, so
Speaker 1: you're sure you feel okay? So we bundled him up
Speaker 1: and we go to Monty's. My kids get their lamb chops.
Speaker 1: We all split it like a couple of steaks like
Speaker 1: that was happening, and I was just like, oh, miss
Speaker 1: Monty's lamb chops. Then it was like such on a
Speaker 1: whim that we decided to do this right Then as
Speaker 1: we're leaving, literally we start to leave, I go back
Speaker 1: to the table because I forgot my phone, so I'm
Speaker 1: looking around and it had fallen under the table.
Speaker 2: Safe got it.
Speaker 1: But this is such do you guys know the movie
Speaker 1: Sliding Doors Gwyneth Paltrow one of my favorite movies. So anyway,
Speaker 1: it shows how like in life, like being can happen,
Speaker 1: and if you were like five seconds later, five seconds earlier,
Speaker 1: it alters the future. That sound a cuckoo, but you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So anyway, because I dropped my
Speaker 1: phone because I went back, I now walk out and
Speaker 1: walk right into someone I have not seen since my twenties,
Speaker 1: Linda Murray.
Speaker 2: She we were super good friends.
Speaker 1: She was my next door neighbor at my very first
Speaker 1: apartment I moved into when I was eighteen and a half.
Speaker 1: The door Chester, not the will Shure that I talk about,
Speaker 1: a lot that was like a few doors down. This
Speaker 1: was my first one. Literally have not seen her since,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, like my twenty first birthday. So I'm like, whoa,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh. I said, what are the chances? I
Speaker 1: can't believe we're walking into each other right now, and
Speaker 1: she's like, I know, this is crazy.
Speaker 2: So I say.
Speaker 1: We exchange numbers and have been texting ever since. But
Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, that was such a bizarre what are
Speaker 1: the chances? But there are no chances right, Like it
Speaker 1: was meant to happen, so very cool. And we used
Speaker 1: to go to Monty's and Westwood together. That's that reference
Speaker 1: with her. Anyway, we get in the car, we go home,
Speaker 1: and I'm just like, wow, this has been like a
Speaker 1: wildly crazy day of like things are happening and signs
Speaker 1: like you're talking about signs. So cut forward the next day,
Speaker 1: I go down to get medicine caps random I know,
Speaker 1: to give bo medicine and I open up a drawer.
Speaker 1: Now in my house, well, you guys know me, well,
Speaker 1: I'm not organized like random where things are like nothing
Speaker 1: makes sense in my world, but everything makes sense, if
Speaker 1: that makes sense. I open up a drawer in the
Speaker 1: kitchen where the medicine caps are, and in the back
Speaker 1: the drawer there's a pack of lamb chop panties, the
Speaker 1: ruffle panties I was describing.
Speaker 2: Now, that's insane short of gut.
Speaker 1: So literally, I know, I like bought them at some
Speaker 1: point from Amazon or something, never used, and like when
Speaker 1: I make lamb chops one day. Growing up, we always
Speaker 1: like my family put these ruffle panties on. But the
Speaker 1: timing of it. I just opened the drawer.
Speaker 2: I see it there.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen it since. I guess I put it
Speaker 1: there at some point in the past, and I'm.
Speaker 2: Like, oh my god.
Speaker 1: But typically I'm moving so fast I wouldn't have seen,
Speaker 1: and I like slowed down to be like look and
Speaker 1: saw that. I was like, Wow, that's a funny coincidence.
Speaker 2: Take note of that.
Speaker 1: Then I went I went forward with my day. Five
Speaker 1: o'clock that day, my brother Randy sends me a video.
Speaker 1: We have not talked about any of this, and he
Speaker 1: and his daughters my nieces, are making lamb chops.
Speaker 2: No way.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's crazy, like the two siblings have
Speaker 4: the lamb chop thing almost more than any of the
Speaker 4: other coincidences that the two of your brains.
Speaker 3: You know, Yeah, interesting, that's.
Speaker 1: Just because you always go back to what you like
Speaker 1: eat growing up, because it's like a comfort level, right, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Here's wal lamb chops.
Speaker 1: Sorry, but I make other things that are like comfort food.
Speaker 2: It's more relatable, like my chicken fried steak.
Speaker 1: Anyway, he's making lamb chops and I'm like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: and I'm just laughing. First of all, it looked so good,
Speaker 1: but I was like, my mouth's watering right now thinking
Speaker 1: about them.
Speaker 2: But I was like, wow, that's so funny.
Speaker 1: And lately, my brother and I have been talking a
Speaker 1: lot about taking time to really like I think I
Speaker 1: talked about Halloween, Like my Halloween costume was made from
Speaker 1: I was a pizza.
Speaker 2: But it came for me.
Speaker 1: Like rushing through Target to grab something else, seeing a
Speaker 1: dog toy and being like why does my brain want
Speaker 1: me to stop and pay attention to that, And then
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, okay, that's my costume. So like, I've
Speaker 1: really been trying to take in like random things like
Speaker 1: is a deja vu? Is it just like add or ADHD?
Speaker 1: Like why am I not focused? Like or am I
Speaker 1: supposed to be focus on certain things and take note
Speaker 1: of them.
Speaker 2: That's all.
Speaker 1: Anyway, So he makes lam chops. They look amazing and anyway,
Speaker 1: Then the next take Bo has to go back because
Speaker 1: hit doctor Danny says he has something. We need to
Speaker 1: put him on antibiotics. But I want to put him
Speaker 1: on an antibiotic that that does not resistant to this stream, okay,
Speaker 1: And he said, so I need him to come back in.
Speaker 2: Is there any way you could get him back in?
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh my gosh, of course, Like
Speaker 1: I'm driving a million kids, doing a million things working
Speaker 1: and I'm like and I'm like, yep, I'll get him in.
Speaker 1: So ruth Anna remembers this because I feel like I
Speaker 1: had to like change meetings and stuff around that day.
Speaker 1: I remember, yep, yep, oh boy, but my kid's health,
Speaker 1: like they come first. So I go home and I say,
Speaker 1: because all the kids are home because it's you know,
Speaker 1: the holiday break, And I say, guys, I my gut
Speaker 1: is telling me that we should all go in and
Speaker 1: it'll take five seconds I'm like pitching to them why
Speaker 1: this is a good idea to maintain their health? Like
Speaker 1: what why not just say, guys, get the car go.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, but I me being me, I'm over talking,
Speaker 1: I'm overthinking, not over mommy. If I was over mommy,
Speaker 1: I again would have said let's just get in my car.
Speaker 1: So I said, something is telling me that we you
Speaker 1: guys should all get a swab. Doctor Danny said, everyone
Speaker 1: come in and since I'm going with bo anyway, we
Speaker 1: should go. So they all you know him in haw
Speaker 1: but they they do it. The one that was really
Speaker 1: resistant was your ring bear, ruth An Finn. Finn was
Speaker 1: ruth Anne's ring bear. What year did you and Tom
Speaker 1: get married?
Speaker 3: Twenty seventeen and Finn, I'm.
Speaker 1: Gonna count on my fingers because I don't do math.
Speaker 1: He was four wait, no, no, no.
Speaker 2: Oh five.
Speaker 1: So Finn was five and he was the ring bear
Speaker 1: in their wedding and it was amazing.
Speaker 3: He was so cute, Oh my god, it's cute.
Speaker 2: And he was so nervous, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3: And he did such a perfect job.
Speaker 2: He did a great job.
Speaker 1: But so I like to think that Ruthanne has a
Speaker 1: special place in her heart for Finn. I do I know,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you can't pick favorites.
Speaker 3: Is that my favorite? There is no favorite. I love
Speaker 3: them all, but he has a special place in my life.
Speaker 3: I mean, he's my favorite.
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 1: I'm kidding him, railing you up. So Finn is like,
Speaker 1: I'm not sick. I said, I've heard you cough. He's like,
Speaker 1: I have allergies, mom, And I was like, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Something just told me Finn is the one. Finn is
Speaker 1: the truth and one no. Finn needs to go. So
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, well.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. Let's just all go.
Speaker 1: So he agrees to go. Got him off his gaming
Speaker 1: console for an hour, so anyway, we all go. All
Speaker 1: five of them get swabbed, and doctor Danny says, I'll
Speaker 1: have the results in a day. So the next day,
Speaker 1: doctor Danny texts me and he says, I'm with my
Speaker 1: mother in law. She sends her love as well. She
Speaker 1: said she will never forget when she was pregnant with
Speaker 1: my wife.
Speaker 2: The gift that you gave her.
Speaker 1: I don't remember any of this, but I'm like, oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, what was it? And he said it's a blanket,
Speaker 1: and she still has it, and he sends me a
Speaker 1: picture of the blanket from Neiman Marcus and he's like,
Speaker 1: it's in my wife's like memory collection, and you, guys,
Speaker 1: I want to pull this up to give the exact
Speaker 1: wording because it's wild now, just to refresh the story
Speaker 1: in case you can't keep up, because this is kind
Speaker 1: of all over the place in wild. Doctor Danny's wife,
Speaker 1: her mother was the teacher that changed my life in
Speaker 1: fourth grade. Missus Christopher, doctor Danny is my pediatrician's brother,
Speaker 1: and he and my best friend Jess have kids that
Speaker 1: are best friends. Okay, I'm moving on. Okay, So he says,
Speaker 1: this is from missus Christopher. Here is the infamous Tory
Speaker 1: spelling blanket that I loved so much. It came in
Speaker 1: a beautiful gift basket from Neiman Marcus with another blanket
Speaker 1: that was yellow and white, an adorable musical lamb and
Speaker 1: a onesie woamb whoa lamb? What are the chances this
Speaker 1: is like a game of charades, you guys? Or what's
Speaker 1: that game when you like whisper the word and like
Speaker 1: the word is the poem.
Speaker 2: The past word it is?
Speaker 1: Do you remember that I'm a cable guy that's crazy.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: So he also says I have the results. Can you
Speaker 1: get on the phone, And I'm like yes, So I
Speaker 1: get in the phone. This guy's very funny by the way,
Speaker 1: I can tell he's like one of mine, you know.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, okay, so.
Speaker 2: I can always read people. So I get on the phone.
Speaker 1: And I could hear like kids in the background, and
Speaker 1: he's like, you know, multitasking and he's like, oh, sorry,
Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm sorry. I'm with the kids, like,
Speaker 1: and he's telling one like he has like young kids
Speaker 1: and he's like telling one.
Speaker 2: He's like he's like, hey me, your swim diaper hand me. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: you had like all of this and he was like sorry.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh my god, don't worry. This is
Speaker 2: my life.
Speaker 1: And then he goes, okay, so this is crazy, but
Speaker 1: you have five bacterias in your house.
Speaker 2: And I said, well, I know.
Speaker 1: That, but what are the results for the kids?
Speaker 2: He laughed. He was like going so fast with his
Speaker 2: crazy life.
Speaker 1: He took a moment. He's like, oh, that's funny. I'm
Speaker 1: like just trying to make you laugh.
Speaker 2: But I was like, uh yeah.
Speaker 1: So only four of them tested for bacterias in the house,
Speaker 1: but two of them tested for two different ones. So no, no, no,
Speaker 1: one of them tested for two different ones. Told you,
Speaker 1: I don't do math. Here we go bring it full circle.
Speaker 1: So there's five bacteries in the house. I have to
Speaker 1: get Yeah, so three four kids, they're on antibiotics.
Speaker 2: Let's just say that four kids. Wait, can I just
Speaker 2: back it up for Oh god, yes.
Speaker 4: Five kids living under the same roof end up with
Speaker 4: five different bacterias.
Speaker 3: Like, I don't get it. How does that work? Or
Speaker 3: did he not have enough time quick because he was diapering.
Speaker 1: My brother asked me the same thing, and I had
Speaker 1: to think about it, and I was like, because I'm
Speaker 1: not basic, like I don't know, Like.
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, how this happened to me outside of
Speaker 4: the fact that it's you, and of course that would
Speaker 4: happen to you. I I think I'm looking for a
Speaker 4: more scientific explanation.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, the poor guy was dealing with like
Speaker 1: a naked kid in like diapers and trying to dress
Speaker 1: her for the pool and spend time with this family.
Speaker 2: I didn't get into details.
Speaker 1: I was trying to find a pen to write all
Speaker 1: this down because he's telling me names.
Speaker 2: Of course, Finn has some.
Speaker 1: Virus or bacteria that starts with an F, and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: in Finn fashion, like you know, always a pun like
Speaker 1: my kid.
Speaker 2: I was like, of course, I've never even heard of
Speaker 2: this one.
Speaker 1: So I like, and I can't find a pen because
Speaker 1: you guys know, I don't write anything down. Everything stays
Speaker 1: in my brain. So I'm trying to find a pen.
Speaker 1: I found, I found a pen, wrote it down whatever.
Speaker 1: I had to go from room to room and read
Speaker 1: to the kids exactly what they had. And then doctor
Speaker 1: Danny was like, don't go down the rabbit hole of Google.
Speaker 1: He's like, just you know, I've seen all of these
Speaker 1: bacterias come in and out lately, a lot amongst you know,
Speaker 1: young kids, teenagers. Like it's just everything, it's all this
Speaker 1: is very normal. He did say that. He said, he
Speaker 1: just kept saying.
Speaker 2: You just have a lot of kids.
Speaker 1: Yeah, my now, yeah, that's the thing. Okay, So before
Speaker 1: I get too far away, keep in mind the word.
Speaker 2: Is lamb Okay.
Speaker 1: So anyway, I tell him like, thank you very much,
Speaker 1: have a great day.
Speaker 2: Like all that.
Speaker 1: We get off the phone and this is crazy. We
Speaker 1: get off the phone and Manty I opened the door
Speaker 1: to come tell the kids like the results. I close
Speaker 1: myself in the bedroom because it's so loud in the house,
Speaker 1: to focus on doctor Danny for a moment, write all
Speaker 1: it down, and I now I'm like, okay, my paper,
Speaker 1: I'm going to go tell all the kids what they have.
Speaker 1: I opened the door and Monty is standing there. And
Speaker 1: Monty drops his favorite toy we call his baby. He
Speaker 1: loves stuffed animals. And I had forgotten that I got
Speaker 1: him this. He drops Lamb Chop right in front of me.
Speaker 1: You remember Lamb Chop from the the Old School. It
Speaker 1: was a character, a puppet like yeah originally right? It
Speaker 1: was so Sherry Lewis. She famously created and performed sock
Speaker 1: puppet Adrian. Yes, Lamb Chop for Captain Kangaroo.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, Kangaroo.
Speaker 3: I'm old same. I loved Captain Kangaroo.
Speaker 2: Me too, Me too anyway, So but my mom was
Speaker 2: a huge fan.
Speaker 1: So when we were young, she always had like the
Speaker 1: Lamb Chop character puppet like for us, my brother and I.
Speaker 1: So they now make it in like Petco, there's always
Speaker 1: Lamb Chop. I don't know if people get the reference.
Speaker 1: Maybe they're just like, oh, it's a cute Lamb, but
Speaker 1: it literally is a take on that puppet, and I forgot.
Speaker 1: Whenever I see it, I always buy it because I
Speaker 1: was just such a huge fan. So I think like
Speaker 1: a couple months ago, I bought Lamb Chop at Petco
Speaker 1: for Monty. Anyway, long story short, he drops it right
Speaker 1: in front of me and I'm like, oh, it's your baby.
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, Lamb Lamb. Oh my god, this is
Speaker 1: another Lamb sign. What is happening? That's totally crazy. So
Speaker 1: have you figured out what the sign means? So I
Speaker 1: know my brother all of this and being like the
Speaker 1: type of brain I have, Like if you give me
Speaker 1: a priority list, my friend just says, I always like,
Speaker 1: if you give me a list of one to ten,
Speaker 1: I'll focus on number eleven on the list until it's done,
Speaker 1: like the details. So I'm telling him all this and
Speaker 1: he's like, Okay, I think there's an overall sign here.
Speaker 1: He's like, you're focusing on the details because I was like,
Speaker 1: missus Christopher and like what this is. He's like, I'm
Speaker 1: literally like playing this game of my life with like
Speaker 1: connecting the dots of like what do these signs mean?
Speaker 1: And He's like, I think it might just be an
Speaker 1: overall sign like LAMB. So he looks up what does
Speaker 1: LAMB mean in your life? Not the meat like lamb? Sorry,
Speaker 1: I just keep saying that because I know those persons
Speaker 1: you're out with them because you don't need LAMB.
Speaker 3: Nice. I know.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Okay, And I wish I wish it was
Speaker 1: another reference, but it's not.
Speaker 3: It is what it is.
Speaker 2: It is. It is.
Speaker 3: You can't fight. You can't fight the signs.
Speaker 2: You can't fight the signs. Okay.
Speaker 1: So he was just saying, like the overall thing that
Speaker 1: keeps coming here, like you're looking at the details is LAMB, right?
Speaker 2: And I was like yeah, he's like.
Speaker 1: So he was like, look up the spiritual meaning of
Speaker 1: keep like when you keep seeing or getting that sign
Speaker 1: of lamb and this is crazy, you guys. Here's what
Speaker 1: it means if you look it up. The spiritual meaning
Speaker 1: of seeing a lamb is about remembering who you were
Speaker 1: before the world hardened you and choosing again to live
Speaker 1: with gentle strength. Like what that's got me in my tracks?
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my gosh, this is crazy. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: overall like a lot of exhausting, but fun signs, But
Speaker 1: like the takeaway was like, okay, like I no choke,
Speaker 1: literally like kind of looked up and I was like,
Speaker 1: thanks Dad, Oh I love Like I literally took that
Speaker 1: moment because I was like, oh my god, Like, I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's just like a beautiful concept to think,
Speaker 1: Like people say, look for signs that your loved ones
Speaker 1: are around, and you know they'll be like a butterfly
Speaker 1: or you know, like a penny things like that. But
Speaker 1: I'm always like, is it go beyond that? And I
Speaker 1: don't know, We don't know.
Speaker 2: But I don't know.
Speaker 1: I whatever it was or whoever it was, I was
Speaker 1: just like, I'm grateful, thank you. So yeah, that's my
Speaker 1: takeaway for now. So I'm gonna go rule the world.
Speaker 1: Any questions, Just kidding
