My Boy Wonder
Parenting is not exactly getting easier as it goes on. There are tantrumy thingies, sleepless nights, coughs I don't know how to get rid of, an echo of "Out, out out" following me everywhere I go, having to hear the same song or video "Aho, aho" (which means "again, again") ninety six times in a day, grouchy car rides, and now-drumroll.....potty training. We had two turds on the floor just Sunday.
And then moments like this:
of rogue plague rats on a pirate ship
of pennies in a favorite fountain
and of caped crusading away from me
and all of the challenging things fade away. They won't ever matter a bit.



I like the caped ones shoes. Very bright and energizing. Probably helps him fly when necessary, eh? :-)
