WOW. That title is loud isn’t it? Can’t you just hear Robin Williams yelling into the microphone?
Good morning bloggy friends…I hope your weekend was wonderful.
Mine was interesting. I can’t really talk about it yet, I will be able to by Wednesday at the latest. It was a lot of crazy, and a lot of fun too. You know, because that’s how we roll at the hacienda de la Swan. How’s that for some grammatically incorrect Spanish?
Grant this morning was watching the Wonder Pets, and started crying when a kitty got stuck on a log. Then he tried to get me to come over to the TV to get the kitty. It was so cute and sad. He was DEVASTATED that the poor little kity was stuck. We got to have a little talk about TV just being a show, and that TV isn’t REAL. Then I explained that can be proven by the fact that the Wonder Pets will save the kitty and they did. THEN today on Chinese Dora, they were doing the hula (like in Hawaii) and HE…DID…THE….HULA.
This age just amazes me, because things are just turning on right and left. I’m excited for SkyAngel to get here so we can cancel cable and watch Jesus TV.
Last night at dinner, the boy and were talking about nothing.
“I didn’t even know about farts before I went to school at Waukee.”
I make a confused face.
“Seriously?”
“Yeah, my parents never talked about it.”
“I guess mine never did either…now they do and it’s funny.”
The boy makes a confused face. I can’t beleive we’re talking about the advent of our knowledge of farts, but I go with it.
“It’s not funny to talk about it….parents aren’t supposed to?”
“Well we’re going to….right?”
“NO! We can’t teach Grant farts are funny!”
“Why not?”
The boy leans over and farts AT THE DINNER TABLE. The wee one laughs.
“Because it’s….”
“Okay seriously can I please just point out the irony of you telling me farts aren’t a funny thing, and we can’t teach Grant, and then you fart AT THE DINNER TABLE? The same table you just thanked Jesus for a few minutes ago?
Clearly we have some duality going on in the Swan household. I don’t think it’s bad that farts are funny…THEY ARE. We just have to teach him they aren’t exactly socially acceptable so he doesn’t like fart on his Sunday School teacher or something.
