Will and his friend Madi were jumping on the trampoline. He is doing flips, handstands, tumbles...you name it. His fearless attitude is almost admirable....if I could stop envisioning the ways in which his fearlessness is going to cost me a fortune in medical bills. Anyway, he is flipping, jumping, etc and says, "Hey mom, watch this..." Famous last words, right? He runs across the trampoline, jumps and does a BACK FLIP. I felt the air leave my body and my stomach jump to my throat. However, instead of seeing him crumpled in a heap with a broken neck, he lands on his feet and shouts, "Now that is what I call WINNING!"
This morning, I dressed in my Mommy uniform--black yoga pants and a tshirt. The tshirt selection was a blue ZTA Bid Day shirt from college. Ian: Mom, do you realize your shirt says "January 2001?" Me: Yes, Ian, I do. Ian: Do you know that means your shirt is over 10 years old? Me: Yes. This is a shirt from college. Ian: Do you realize that you are no longer in college and too old to be wearing shirts from that decade? Me: I realize that this shirt is in excellent condition so I don't care if it's from another decade. Ian: Well I guess its a good thing you are embracing your old age. It will match your hair nicely.
Maggie is learning a lot of new words and animal sounds. Her new favorite word is "sit." Except, it doesn't sound like "Sit" but rather sounds a lot more like "shit." All day, she has been saying "shit, shit, shit." She looked at Will and said, "Shit Wiwie, shit." Will responded, "No Mags, it's S-I-T not shit. Shit is what you do on the potty." I imagine now she has learned TWO new words. Thanks, Will!
