Life, under the bus
Birthdays loom big on the horizon; all conversation leads back to the mighty joy ahead. At least if you are Zack.
Zack: Daddy, Mommy's birthday is before yours. He is smirking, mindful that his birthday is days before Lexi's - great fodder, to harass her with.
Lexi: Actually Zack, Daddy's birthday is in January, the beginning of the year. Besides Daddy is older than Mommy.
Me: MUCH, much older. (Can't resist.)
Lexi: Well, it's not like he's an old man, per se. He just has spiky hair.
Zack, cackling: Yeah...spiky hair and a bald head....
They both start giggling as I finish tucking them in to bed when I hear Greg in the distance.
What are you guys talking about?
Nothing, dear.
