Under Fire

Mama and I were chatting away and suddenly we looked up to Chuckles and Giggles sneaking into the room armed with nerf dart guns aimed at us. They shot, we died, you know the routine.

A moment later, Silliness comes charging into the room with a plastic rifle. I laugh, “Look, Lily has the assault rifle.”

Without missing a beat Chuckles chimes in, “Yep, she’s shooting salt. You better watch out.”

Tropical Impression

Chuckles has a small plastic boomerang which he needs practice with. In the course of practicing today, he bounced it off of Silliness’ head by accident. Silliness tends not to forget such things. Later this evening she recounted the story to me while she, Chuckles and I were at a local park. I did not catch exactly what she was trying to tell me so in mild frustration she tried telling me a different way than the first time…

“Charlie hit me in the head. He almost busted my coconut.”

Where she got that, I do not know.

A Moment of Clarity

In explaining and quizing about some of the mundane facts of life, Mama Chanoli asked Chuckles a random question.

Mama: “Chuckles, are you a male or a female?”

Chuckles: “I’ll give you two guesses.”

She says’em the way she hears’em.

Giggles is playing “Heman and Goliath.” (Yes, they know the power of greyskull.)

Old Hair

Silliness: What’s that sparkly stuff on Dad’s chin?

Giggles: Sparkly stuff? Let me see.

(Examining of beard…)

Giggles: Oh. That white stuff means he’s getting old. That’s the old hair.

Me: Those are the hairs I earned.

Silliness: You worked for those?

Giggles: Those must be from hard work.

Me: (Trying not to smile too much) Yeah, they must be.

The Pic I used for the site banner is not to be missed.

Welcome..?!

Once I get the hang of some house keeping here on wordpress, I’ll add some Giggles and Silliness, but here’s something that got a Chuckle out of me today…

Sitting at the dinner table tonight Chuckles piped up out of the blue and stated, “fake water is the kind you don’t swim in.” I might be the only one to find that funny, but you hafta’ admit, he’s right.
