Baby's First Shank

Journal entries from a mom of 4 little boys

Jan 4, 2016 - I'm not sure why I bother closing the bathroom door. Inevitably, one of the 4 ninjas in the next room opens it, walks across the bathroom, comes up behind me in the closet, and it's always, Always, ALWAYS when I'm in the process of pulling up my pants. I turn around still not knowing someone is there and jump out of my skin as I see Adrian standing there with a smirk on his face telling me, "I saw your nuts, Mommy."

Baby's First Shank

12/20/2016

While I was working today (translation: stuck in the Dallas North Tollway parking lot for 2 1/2 hours), the boys were home doing crafts. When I got home, Javi was waiting for me and so excited to show me his "most creative project I have ever made". Out from behind his back, he pulls out this gem that is made of 2 Popsicle sticks, one cut or shaved into a very sharp point on one end. It looks like a sword or dagger. And while I heard myself say, "That sure IS creative", all I could think was, "Well, look at that... his first shank."

And then I took it to look at it more closely and walked away with it, because my health insurance premiums are going up in 2 weeks.
