Faemom brought on this “Hey! That reminds me…” post!
Not long ago, the boys were playing in their playroom. I was working downstairs in the kitchen. Suddenly, it got very, very quiet. Fully expecting to catch them in the act of a dastardly deed, I tiptoed up the stairs. As I rounded the corner I witnessed a peculiar scene.
The entire playroom was perfectly neat. (very peculiar) Every toy was in it’s proper place. (very, very peculiar) Except for the stuffed animals. Every animal was sitting side by side in a long row that wrapped around the room.
“What’s going on?” I asked, innocently.
#1son shook his head sadly and said, “It’s been a very, very bad day.”
It was everything in me not to crack up.
But just as seriously I replied, “I’m right there with ya!'”
And with that #2son sidled up to me and patted my shoulder knowingly.
Yes, they know all about the very bad day.
