Aunty Is Bags Of Fun

(I drive a truck, and my nephew is accompanying me. My nephew is still in a car seat, and the law states that it is illegal to have a car-seat in a seat with an air-bag.)

Me: “All buckled up! Alright, let’s get going.”

(She gets all strapped in herself, then realizes she has left the passenger air bags on.)

Me: “Oh, shoot!”

Nephew: “What’s the matter?”

Me: *having trouble with the part that turns off the airbags* “I forgot to turn the airbag off.”

Nephew: “What’s an airbag?”

(She finally turns it off.)

Me: “Well, if we get into an accident, it’s kind of like a big balloon that stops you from moving.”

Nephew: “Oh, so you don’t want me to have that?”

Me: “No, it’s not that. It’s against the law to have it on with you in the truck.”

Nephew: “Oh, so no one wants me to be safe in the car?”

(He begins to tear up and sniffle.)

Me: “You are right. What am I thinking?”

(I pretend to fiddle around with the dashboard.)

Me: “There we go, all turned back on.”

Nephew: “Yay! You do love me!”
