My son has been saying that he wants to be the person who drives the police car when he grows up. I thought this meant that he wanted to be a police officer but noticed that he always puts the criminal Lego man in the driver’s seat of the Lego police car.
I hope this isn’t a sign of things to come.

Behold: the first Christmas present that my son has obtained for me on his own!
Apparently, his school hosts a yearly event where the kids pick out presents for their special someones (like ME!) He chose this all by himself. The thing I found most interesting is that it’s something that I would have picked out on my own.
Tempering all of this was the way he beamed and declared, “It’s a candle holder, Mommy! Now we can make fire.”
Settle down, Beavis.

Literarily
- Bug: I want more noodles!
- Me: There aren't any more. You ate the last serving.
- Bug: Give me some of yours!
- Me: Look, kid: I'm not the freaking "Giving Tree." *muttering* Trying to take everything until I'm just a stump on the ground...

It Started in Low Then It Started to Grow
I’d like to take a moment to remind everybody of the importance of having an extra and charged camera battery. Having this might allow you to get a full video of your child’s first onstage performance as opposed to a few seconds hastily snatched with a cell phone camera.
With that out of the way:
Shortly after the audience laughs, there is a single voice that’s drowning out everyone else on stage. It reached through the entire auditorium without a microphone or any other amplification aid. That voice belongs to… (I’m mentally inserting a drum roll) MY SON!
Reticence is obviously not in his genetic composition.
Bug was awesome and his unabashed enthusiasm was hilarious. I was laughing so hard that I was in tears, as well as feeling enormous pride. I’ve always been too self-conscious to perform in front of people, but he feels none of this. It made me really happy. I hope he’s always this bold.
