Little Guy status

Thanks to some testing and eliminating all other culprits, it looks like Little Guy had a reaction to over-the-counter medication. He has not had a reaction since, Thank God!

Thanks for everyone's prayers and support.

World, Meet Parenting

Blue Suit Little Guy is often parenting those around him. Some examples follow.

Football, Meet Parenting – “No, no, no, Colts, don’t take the ball from the Steelers.”

Airplane, Meet Parenting – “Oh, hi F-22. You are such a big … one!” (Hesitation denotes the moment Little Guy spent pondering what category an F-22 fits into, to substitute “big kid” with the appropriate word.)

Blue Suit Baby Girl, Meet Parenting – “So you don’t touch my toys, Baby Girl. No, no, no!”

Shopping, Meet Parenting – “They have a store that is called, ‘Big Planes for People to Fly.’ They have planes with eyes and nose and mouth. The planes are a lot of money; they cost about a hundred. So that costs a lot.”

Steeler Fever

Blue Suit Little Guy is very “incited” (not excited mind you, incited) about the Super Bowl.

For about the last week, he is usually found running around at top speed, sometimes holding a football and sometimes not, wearing his KC Chiefs uniform (#31 Priest Holmes) and narrating, “The Steelers run very fast, and they get a touchdown!” He falls on the ground when he narrates the part about the touchdown.

This afternoon, I gave him a drink because “Steelers get firsty (thirsty).”

This morning, Little Guy held forth on how the Colts and Steelers played, but the Colts ran out of time. Then the Broncos and Steelers played, but then the Broncos ran out of time. Next, the Skeehawks and Steelers will play, and will the Skeehawks run out of time? Yes, Little Guy, we want the Steelers to win so we hope the Skeehawks will run out of time.

Just now in his room I heard him playing some unknown game, “8, 9, 10, 11, 12 Skeehawks!”

Just two weeks left and then he will be moping around begging to watch football. Until then,

GO STEELERS!
