The bubblebath
Published on January 25, 2005 By lifehappens In Home & Family
To preface this article, I know that the majority of you could care less about what my son is currently doing or saying, but I like to write about this stuff because...well, HW gets to read it and it gives me something to say.

After 2 hours at the park, I convinced my son to come home with my by promising a bubble bath.

"If we hurry and run to the car, when we get home, you get to have... a bubble bath." (said with lots of forced enthusiasm...)

"A bubble baf...? A BUBBLE BAF?!?! I can like a bubble baf!"

"Great let's go home."

In the car, a small voice pipes up from the back seat and gets louder as he gets more enthused....
"take my clothes off and I can get in bubble baf...I take Piderman shoes off. I CAN get in bubble baf....I can get in MY bubble baf..."

Do you think he's excited?

On the way home he also pointed out the "banana moon". I was driving and had my eyes on the road, but I knew that the moon was full and couldn't figure out what he was looking at until we crested the hill and I saw the moon, low on the horizon and a bright yellow. I guess it really was a "banana moon"....

i had a good laugh on that one lifehappens. Sometimes little things like that make me wanna have kids as soon as possible. But i think i need to do some growing up before that

And you dont have to apologise for whatever you write. It's YOUR blog, and if people dont like it, whatever. I find it interesting Your son is at the age where most of the things he does or says are hilrious, so dont mind sharing them.

I'm glad that you offer no apologies for the "trivial stuff" you write. Although you did say, "To preface this article, I know that the majority of you could care less about what my son is currently doing or saying, but I like to write about this stuff because...well, HW gets to read it and it gives me something to say."

I guess that came across hinting mildly of apology.
I agree with island gurl! Nothing you write could be something no one wants to read (did that make sense? ha!) OK, I'll rephrase it in English. Everything you write is great!

If you were a journalist, you'd be a bizillionaire. Heck, for all I know, you might already be a bizillionaire, so leaving money out of it, people love to read your words! You bring everything to life, and you color this gray world, all with your words. How do you do it?! I'd love to be you for a day, and feel how much fun it is in your head.

Life, your little one is so adorable. Isn't it great when they let you convince (or bribe) them into doing something they really like so as to distract them and let you get "your" way? Keep on having fun.

Kids are so cute! I have a two year old niece that gets so excited over the littlest things.

LH~
I love reading your little comments about the kids and life. You are part of my family I am not in very close contact with and it makes me happy to be able to have some small insight into your life. Hopefully when HW gets home we will be able to see you either at your home or here in Arizona. I love you. Good luck with the kids. Keep writing. It adds a ray of sunshine to many peoples' lives.

I love reading your articles about your little guy, cause he's the same age as my little guy! They are so darn cute sometimes.

lol that IS cute. Lucky you though, my son's favorite thing to say is "NO!" its "no" everything, even if he wants it.
" hey Patrick...do you want a cookie?" his eyes light up and he nods his head. "yes peese" so we give him one.
He looks at it, looks at us, smirks. Throws it and yells NOOO! all the while smiling.
what a pain. our first wasnt that bad lol.
