Ten year old boys are a little on the funny side. While exploring the condo where we are staying, he stood in front of a mirrored closet door. His eyes moved from one reflection of himself to the other. Finally, he concluded this stare down with, "I don't think I trust either one of you."
This is the same boy who, when he figured out Mr. Taylor and I were speaking in code (talking about one of the children), he stared at us both in disbelief then exclaimed, "You're talking about my secret adoption, aren't you!"
I don't think he realizes how funny he is. A couple of years ago we were wrestling and I let him pin me. He then informed me he would never get married and have children. He would grow up and get a dog and a cat and name them Bob and Fred.
"Who will cook for you? And go to the store? Who will make your lunches?" I asked.
"Bob and Fred," he replied matter-of-factly.
That made me laugh and, since he was sitting on my stomach at the time, he ended up laughing, too.
Then he lost control of his bladder.

You are going to have your hands full!
ReplyDeleteAnd was he secretly adopted? Can you make a Lifetime movie out of it?
Ah Thank you for the laugh. That is hilarious.
ReplyDeleteThat is too funny! For me of course, not for you at the time.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's so much funnier when someone else gets peed on!
ReplyDeleteGreat story
You ain't coo' unless you pee yo' pants...
ReplyDeleteSTOP IT! OR I'LL BURY YOU ALIVE IN A BOX!
*Anna*
I love what he said to his reflections!
ReplyDeleteI think I could live with that kid...as soon as the peeing thing stopped.
So if you ever want to follow through on the secret adoption thing, let me know, ok?
HA!! Having four young children I get peed on way to much for it to be a laughing matter to me, but it's always funny when it happens to someone else... :)
ReplyDeleteAAAh!
ReplyDeleteGlad it was you and not me.
I think he gets his sense of humor from his parents.
