My Mom

My mom is so funny. We went to visit my parents last night and took my mom her belated birthday present. Part of it was a little Tigger "action figure" - because my mom loves Tigger. She looked at the box and said, "Ooo . . . ages 3 and up." I said, "I hope you're old enough for it." She answered, "That's debatable."

This morning David told me that last night he used the bathroom at my parents' house. After he came out, my mom asked him if he found any soap in there. He said, no, he hadn't. My mom said, "That's because the soap bottle had an octopus on it, and I couldn't stand to look at it. I've been putting smiley faces over the octopus. You can use the soap now."

I had no idea my mom is anti-octopus. The things you learn. Now I know why my family is so entertaining (at least I think so!).

Someday I'll have to tell you Ray's definition of "nerd." And about his t-shirt collection (Mr. Rodgers, Bob Ross, etc, etc.)

I missed the Tigger action figure! I only saw her get out the chocolate and she was excited about that. I imagine I had to go wrangle my kid at that point or the cat or something. We have decided that we aren't taking the cat on anymore road trips unless we're leaving him there!
