One could say FAILURE, but I beg to differ. I did set out to write a post every day for the month of November, and at that I certainly did fail. However, since I have absolutely no idea of who reads my blog or of how many of you are out there, I felt no real need to perform for anyone other than me. This led me to stay in a warm bed, get my kids off to school on time, sit and daydream about writing instead of writing, etc. I can let myself down, that has never been a problem, but I really do not like to let others down. So there it is. Now maybe if some of you left a comment or two, that would change things, but probably not.
On our way to MN for Thanksgiving we had a very Pitzian moment at a cheese shop. Before I go any further with this story it is important to know that we have been struggling with Oscar and Alban in the burping department. Oscar finds it incredibly humorous to burp. So funny, in fact, that he ‘fake burps’ a lot and that brings the hammer down here at the house. It is out of control and very age appropriate, unfortunately for us. So here is the Pitzian moment in the cheese shop in Tomah, WI:
Ian: Oscar! Stop scratching your bum with your lollipop!
Marsha (to Ian): You know, it was heartwarming moments like this that I dreamed about when we decided to have children. And now all my dreams have come true.
Ian (to Marsha): fake burp
Marsha and Ian: fits of laughter.
Oscar and Alban: What??? What??? Why are you laughing??
If someone asked me to sum up our family, I think I would send them that exchange. That is us to the core. And for that, I will always be thankful.
