The Song Of My People

  Daughter: Do you want to see a surprise? (Holding hand behind her back after running to me) Me: sure Daughter: Look! It’s a booger!

The Son is riding his bike in the sidewalk by our house and a city employee parks to check something in our neighbors yard. As the Son gets closer he starts to slow down, coming to a complete stop in front of the guy. He’s staring, and the guy looks up from what he's working on and says “hey buddy” Son rings his bike bell twice and rolls away. Savage.

I hear Son laughing about four different ways Me: Watcha doin'?" Son: Oh, I'm just trying out a few different laughs to see which one sounds best on me." Carry on child.

Daughter singing LOUD and PROUD:  “John Jacob Jingle Try My Spit, his name is my name too!”
