This and That

"Mommy, when we're grown up, Aaric will be my children's Uncle Larry."
Nothing I said could convince her that Aaric will never be an Uncle Larry.

We've got a super fun event to go to on Wednesday - the International Day of the Midwife. Note that it is NOT a protest. I explained the basics to Aaric and he said he did indeed want to skip school to go, and said, "I don't want to say anything [because he's so shy you know], but I will hold a sign..."
"Well, honey, it's not really a protest. I don't think there will be any sign holding..."
"Will there be burning sticks?"
"Yes, honey, in modern American society, when we want to bring about change in our government, we storm the Capitol with torches. When all else fails, arson is the answer."

"hack hack hack cough cough"
"hack cough cough hack hack"
"achoo"
"whine whine cough"

I hope they are well enough to be arsonists, I mean, activists on Wednesday. Also, I have a friend due any minute now, and if she doesn't pop that kid out before Thursday, then they'll induce, so I hope they don't get me really sick!
