Mason goes to change his clothes after school one day....and comes back downstairs with the most panicked look on his face. Fighting tears and trying to be the big tough 9 year old that he is, he says, "Um Mom, something is very, very wrong with my leg and I have no idea what it is." Then he proceeds to slowly lower his pants.

I start laughing.

{again....in a very tough/I want to cry tone of voice}
"Mom don't laugh! What is it? What does it mean?" "Will it ever go away?"

"Mason...did you put a pen in your pocket today?"

{Slight smile} "Um yeah...I found one at recess and I put it in my pocket....why?"

Long story short....we threw these pants away. They had a huge hole in the knee anyway....


Madden is slightly addicted to the Olympics. He loves everything about them. He wants to try every sport. He cries when I make him go to bed every night.....because he's sure he is going to miss the "best event ever!" According to him....I am "the meanest mom in the world." {sigh}


Miss Marley got her first bloody nose this morning. Maybe it'll teach her that she is too little to climb onto the kitchen table....but probably not. I love her.


And Macks is just cute. That's all there is to it.
