This too shall pass

My son, God bless him, is your typical five-year-old boy. In every way. He’s bright, talkative, and charming to a fault.
He also has a wonderful sense of humor.
Those things are fine on their own. Mix them together, though, and you can have some problems. For instance, put the boyish ways and the sense of humor side by side and you can have the makings of an old fashioned father/son talk.
Which is what happened a little bit ago.
To hear about the Act (and the Talk), head on over to Katdish’s blog. You’ll cringe, you’ll laugh, and (hopefully) you’ll think. Because no matter who we are and how perfect we try to be, sooner or later we’re all going to screw things up…

I’m a writer whose first novel, Snow Day, will be published by FaithWords in 2010.
But don’t let that fool you. I’m just as confused as anyone.
And that is fine with me, because the great thing about wandering around in the fog is that you never know what you might run into.

Pray for you? Good grief, Billy. How am I gonna let my kids keep reading your blog unless you pray for me?
ROTFLWTSDMF (rolling on the floor laughing with tears streaming down my face)

This post was mentioned on Twitter by gyoung9751: @katdish Good morning, and thanks for the RT. I cracked up with Mr. Coffey’s post today. http://bit.ly/2DSJxT (We’ve raised 2 boys.)…
A stand up routine… hahaha… I love it!
Ah, kids. I try to remember in moments like these that this kind of hilarity and joy is spontaneous and simple. It doesn’t last forever. It seems, as we grow, it gets harder to laugh–harder to see moments of that spontaneous joy. It helps center me when I’m ready to move out.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Billy,
Oh I never did understand what men’s fascination with all that stuff meant but it must just be something that boys begin that end with a man at the end. Some are a lot more polite when it has to happen, but then again, there are those good old boys that never quite seemed to have grown up. Great post as always.
Love and Hugs ~ Kat
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH the joy’s of boy’s!!

From my house full of testosterone and its various effects on sights, sounds and odors, thank you. I laughed a long time over this one.
Thanks for making me laugh, really appreciate you.
Yah, I’ll just blow on over there and read that one. Hardy har har, Billy.
