On the way to school Huck breaks through the Wiggles DVD and says "Does Santa speak baby so he will know what [Worm] wants for Christmas?" I say "Of course!" He then says "Yeah, but does he speak Japanese?"
What? Where did Japanese come from? We don't know anyone who speaks Japanese. In fact, we don't even know anyone who looks Japanese.
I really want one more year of Christmas magic. Those little hooligans better keep their mouth's shut! I will cut them off from the Tuesday afternoon Magic Treehouse reading.
Well, I'm really not that busy... mostly. I'm not a joiner, participator, or over-scheduler. It's important for my family that I keep from spreading myself too thin. At least that's what I tell myself on those days I don't shower or leave the house.
What's the blog about?
It's about my life. The main characters are me, Jen, stay at home mom & smartass; Truck, hard worker & indulgent husband; Huck, school-aged son, profound thinker & future president of something; Worm, toddler son, incredibly cute & future juvenile delinquent. Frequent guest appearances by Jo, SIL, triathlete & coolest girl I know.
Do you talk like that in front of your kids?
What's it to ya? Okay, I do take the swear words down a notch, but I don't edit the irreverence, sarcasm, or general snark. Hey, I believe in teaching my kids all sorts of life skills. Also, you DO know what the phrase 'tongue in cheek means', right? Just keep that in mind whenever you read my stuff.
Will you write about me in the blog?
Hell yes. I ain't skeered. But, I will give you a nickname. I suck at giving nicknames, so if you meet me and think you might end up in a post, you might want to supply your own nickname. Just sayin.
Go on and tell him it's all a hoax...you know he's on the verge of figuring it out. Better hear from his mother than some hooligan at school!
