The 2nd Coming of Richard Pryor
No one, I mean NO ONE, can make Caroline laugh as hard as John can. And he doesn't even really have to DO anything to make her laugh. He just looks at her, smiles, and she is doubled over, laughing hysterically. I could do the chicken dance for 45 minutes straight and all I would get is a "courtesy" laugh. So, my husband has started saying that Caroline thinks John is the 2nd coming of Richard Pryor.I have to admit, it is cute when she smiles at him....teeth and all! In the mornings, John will go with me to get Caroline out of her crib and he lovingly says to her (John language) - "Hello Taroline...did you have a good nap? Yes, hers had a good nap!". It's cute.Birthday party went off without a hitch...well, maybe one...not so much a hitch as a bite. A dog bite. None of the kids....that's good. I decided I wanted Kramer out of the house for the party. He jumps on people and that is annoying. So, I took him to Petsmart to be groomed. Took him at 2pm, was going to pick him up at 7pm. Well, I take him and about 30 minutes later, I get a call from Chase saying "Did Petsmart call you? (I replied No). Well, Kramer bit 2 people and we have to go get him". Sweet Jesus. That Damn Dog. I was so mad at him. Chase went to go get him and by the time he got there, Kramer had bitten 3 people. I was a little worried that they were going to call animal control and anyone who knows Kramer knows that he would never survive a quarantine. It would be all over. They didn't, thank goodness. But when Chase got there, he walks to the back and opens the door to the grooming section. Kramer, literally, runs out from behind the counter like a wild boar. The lady is holding kramer's collar and leash and tells Chase "here, you put it on, he has already bitten 3 people". Kramer is running around the little room like a maniac. Not because he is being mean, but because he was SO hyper. Chase bent over to put his collar on, saying a little prayer in his head "Jesus, please don't let him bite me". Never a dull moment at the Wofford House.Sometimes I think my life if like the Truman Show. And people are laughing hysterically at all the things that happen throughout the day. I then wonder, what do people with 4 and 5 kids do? There is so much work just with 2!Then I realize that this won't last forever and that someday, John won't want mommy to "hold me" and Caroline won't tug at my leg while I am trying to get breakfast together (not a fancy one with eggs and toast...just milk cereal..come on, that's all I can handle).
