(when I remember to) I'm totally blogging this

[drwex]

Scene: the kids are upstairs nominally getting ready for bed but in fact are rumpusing around. There's a WHUMP and a whine from L. Shortly thereafter the whine stops. We wait. A bit after that he appears downstairs.

"Daaady!"
"Yes?"
"I was um... When I..." pause. Stare around. Take in big breath: "I'm a cheetah and I can go 60 miles per hour and when I was doing that I bumped my elbow on the frame of the bathroom door and it really hurt!"

At which point L has to admonish me that "It's not funny" because I'm laughing so hard I can't breathe. I reassure him that no, it's not funny and I'm sorry he bumped his elbow but BOY is he cute!


P.S. The posting title refers to the fact that I plan to blog far more of these episodes than I ever manage to remember.

Hey, are you guys around Saturday? we're going to be in burlington

When Saturday. 3pm is Liam's birthday party in Chelmsford at Plaster Fun time. We have enough space that you're welcome to join. Not everyone could make it. Otherwise we have no plans until that night.

FYI I have some sort of bug, not sure what. I hope to be better by Saturday.

no worries - this was more "if you want to stop by with the kids" than anything else.

Sort of, but mostly not. Saturday is L's birthday party for which we'll be in Chelmsford from mid-afternoon. Prior to that we might be around - depends on time.

I love these stories - and your family seems full of them.

Thank you for sharing. (I got a good chuckle out of "I'm a cheetah").

:-D
