Mark This Date Down

Be sure to make note of this date--it's the date that scientists from the future will return to in an effort to keep it all from happening.

Faith

I haven't lost my faith in God, but I gotta say--my faith in people is being sorely tested this year.

So, I guess I AM the boss of you....

Last night at the monthly pack meeting for the boys' cub scout dens, Ben suddenly decided that he wanted me to be the scout leader for his den (this despite the fact that for nearly every other den meeting he specifically asked that me NOT to be there). 

He announced this to me and then proceeded to go and get an application form for me to fill out to become a den leader.  When he brought it back, he told me that he believed I would make a good den leader.  I asked him why he thought this way.  His reply?  "Well, you enjoy bossing me around, so I thought you'd make a good leader for my den."  His eyes were wide and guileless as he said this.

I don't know if I should be irritated by this or laugh my butt off.

It's Official!

It's officially Official.  I am sick to death of summer and I am ready for Fall to commence.  So let's get with it, Mother Nature.  Seriously.

Zombie Etiquette

There was an epic zombie battle in our back yard the other day.  Three little boys with Nerf guns went zombie hunting....only 2 came back. Well, only 2 came back alive.  One came back....UNDEAD! 

Overheard at the battle: 

"Ben!  You are dead!  You cannot get back up if you are dead!"

"Daniel!  I'm only a little dead!  My brains aren't even hanging all the way out!"

"It doesn't matter!  Even if only one little corner of your brain is out, YOU ARE DEAD!"

"Well, I'm a Zombie so I can get back up if I WANT TO!"

I wonder what games the well-adjusted children of other parents play....
