ROBOT SMALL

I was wrestling with Ivo, and I think he broke my nose. He hit it so hard that I immediately started crying. I don't think I have done in a long long time if ever, just crying from physical pain, and not that dang emotional pain that makes me cry all the time (ha ha, ok i'll stop).

But right before he broke my nose, he was cracking me up with his wrestling line "I FLAT YOU!" and quoting the Chicken Little book... In the Chicken Little book (which is so rad because it was made in the early 70's (like me!)) a police hippo falls from his police hippo helicopter onto this fox with aviators on, and the police hippo says, you're under arrest (!), and the fox says, "no, I'm under a FAT HIPPO!" when I "flatted" Ivo, he told me I was a fat hippo. HA!

But on the good side of body image, he defended my poor saggy body the other day. I was running on the beach, and his dad took one look at my butt and said to Ivo, "Look, mama's butt is shaking!" and Ivo said to him very seriously, "You don't talk about mama's butt!" Thank you, son. Thank you.

So many other things, I always forget them, and believe me, if I don't write them down here, they will be gone forever.. He pretends to fix your body with an imaginary screwdriver. He loves corndogs. He asks for corndogs for breakfast. He likes to have his way. Hates cookies to break. Only likes meals with one ingredient at a time, nothing combined like a sandwich or quesadilla.

And is CUTE CUTE CUTE! Of course.

Do you think the way you sleep is embedded in your DNA? He SLEEPS EXACTLY LIKE HIS DAD. Weird.
