So where was I? Oh yeah...
Four kids is a lot. Did you know that? Anyway, here are a few of the things that have been amusing me during the past several months:
1. Before I had kids, I can very confidently say that no one had ever happily stepped on my taint to get a boost up.
2. How many episodes of Mad Men does it take before a woman stops saying things like, "What?! He's married!" The world may never know.
3. My 9-year-old son D- recently found out that dyslexia is a real condition, not just some kind of unhelpful super power of Percy Jackson. Since he got four books and one movie into the series before realizing this, he still might not be able to resist following slow readers around school, watching for magical fight scenes to break out after the tears and misplaced anger blow over.
4. I'm becoming convinced that it may be the primary purpose of dry cat food to serve as bait to draw mice into The Kill Zone. Either way, the cats get fed, though, right?
5. My 3-year-old son E- opened a fortune cookie to find the observation, "You are never bitter, deceptive, or petty." And that's how we discovered the unwritten label, "Fortune Cookies not intended for users 3 or older."
