Last night, my toddler hugged my leg.
He quickly jumped back with a screech.
Mama, he looked at me with confusion on his face, you've got SPIKES growing out of your legs!
I told him that it was how I defended myself against alien invaders.
He nodded his head in apparent agreement and even a little awe.
If only all men were so easily impressed, eh?

My hubby noticed I was 'fuzzy' the other day…I told him that I was getting my 'winter coat' and that perhaps if he kept the thermostat set to a comfortable temp. I wouldn't need it…..
He merely snorted and said "Smartass"

Tuesday, 10 November, 2009 at 15:21I was rather impressed that it's the first time he noticed mine… I habitually shave because it makes my legs look skinnier (and anything that makes anything look skinnier on me is golden), but I'd been totally out of razors for like two weeks. And, dude, you're in Texas… what winter? :)
