Farterworks

Even though we took these photos over a month ago (dude, who keeps letting time move by SO FAST?) I thought I’d share them with you, because they kind of crack me up.

This was a Saturday morning Mac Photo Booth play session with Braden (hence the fabulous photo quality, *snort*). He is both silly and fun as well as intensely moody, whiny, and dramatic.

I really have no idea whose child this is. *wink*

I adore hanging out with him and being silly. He is displaying such a fabulous sense of humor these days, which makes it even more fun.

And by sense of humor, I mean that he is cracking me up by replicating my incorrigible taste for fart jokes, with indelible favorites like:

*the sound of fireworks outside*
Him: “Ooooooh, Farter!”
Me: “No, silly, you know those are fireworks!”
Him: Pause. *giggle* “Oooooooh, FARTER-WORKS!” *raucous laughter*
Me: *SMPL*

Gotta love havin’ a little boy. Especially when you are secretly one, too.

Sparkle On!

Here’s hoping your weekend kicks ass, guys.

Braden and I will be playing with these:

Also, eating hotdogs, playing outside, and just generally hanging out together.  On Saturday, John will join us in our merriment.  There is much to be thankful for.  Like anytime the 3 of us are together.  That’s pretty sublime.

Can you believe that is the most recent picture of the 3 of us together? That’s from October, for cryin’ out loud!?  Who thinks we should take a new one on Saturday?    *raises hand*

 

If you have any downtime this weekend and feel like reading: yesterday’s post is here, and there’s one I’m excited about here, too.   (*school-girl-type squeal*)

Comments on either/both are appreciated… as always ( b/c I’m an Attention Whore, I’ll admit it freely).

By the way, thanks so much to all of you who already hopped over there and read, and BIG thanks to those who commented! You even had to do MATH to leave a comment there. And that’s just above and beyond what should ever be required without compensation. So really, thanks, You Wonderful People! You made my day yesterday.

*gratuitous ass kiss warning*

Know this: I appreciate all of you, you who read, you who comment, – even you who don’t comment as long as you’re here with me! I appreciate you who are here often as well as you who only visit sporadically. I just appreciate all of you. Without you, there wouldn’t be much reason for me to hit “publish” on any of these posts. Sure, I write this for myself and write what I want to write, but I could keep a private journal if it didn’t have something to do with my interactions with YOU.

So, thanks so much for supporting me whenever you can.

*end of gratuitous ass kissing*

 

Now go eat some grilled stuff, drink some fun drinks, watch the bright lights and listen to the loud pops and the laughter of your loved ones, while you smile and soak it all in.  Enjoy every moment, it’s worth it.
