laughter: the best medicine

i got a funny for you. i don't normally entertain what i see as crass humor, but this, well it just caught me so off guard today. had me laughing for quite some time. so if this in any way offends, please forgive me, i am not myself today. come back tomorrow, i will have something better to share ;)

lil man and i are out tossing the football back and forth. he lays down the law : nothing hard, not above my head and if i don't catch it i still get a point. for me though: its all fair game. ha! who taught this boy... honestly ;)

anywho, we're catching away. he throws a couple funny ones at me so i streamline one back to him. after the look of incredulity (translated: wow! mommy can actually THROW!) he attempts to catch but ends up calling it a "hard" ball. shame on me, mommy... no hard balls. it continues.

"only daddy is allowed to throw hard balls. did you ever see his hard balls mommy? back in Petaluma?"

i am sorry. by this point i'm laughing so desperately that i cannot answer. hard balls honey. did i see 'em? hmmm...

how do you answer that with a straight face?

;)
