I need parenting advice

I was cleaning up the house yesterday (basically throwing all Kira's shit in her room) and I started to nag her about leaving crap everywhere she goes, and she said, "SHHHHHHHHHHH!"  Naturally, I'm annoyed about being shushed by anyone, much less my messy messy daughter when I find myself cleaning up after her again, and when I was about to say, "Did you really just shush me???"  she pointed to this:


and whispered, "The chicken is on the phone."

What am I going to do with this kid?  When she can make me turn into a quivering mass of laughter, how am I supposed to parent her?  I really want to know.  I really really do.

    That was the funniest thing I've ever read.

    Good luck with that one.

    Well, really the chicken IS on the phone.
    Your kid is great!

    I like your kid. She seems to come up with more smart answers than I ever could. I need her to come and work for me - she can work from home and pretend she's suspended with pay if she likes.

    She needs to have her own twitter account (I did not just say that, did I? I would never let my 13 yr old daughter have one....) for our amusement.

    Laugh when you can because sometimes you just won't be able to.
