I had rehearsal tonite and came home to find my 7 yr. old boy asleep in bed, his hands and feet covered with insulating foam.. the kind you put in cracks.. it's a foam that hardens into a plastic.. or it's a plastic.. maybe that's it. Anyway he is covered with plastic that will hardly even peel off... betw. his toes, his fingers, up his arms. I'll be peeling it off for 2 hours tomorrow.

How did he get into that stuff?

I don;t know.. found it in the trailer to go to the dump I think. You are lucky to have all girls. He is such a man's man already.

You know, I wanted a boy - but have a pretty girly girl, she is usually neat and clean, very artsy, very gentle, and I couldn't be happier. She is the apple (no offense) of my eye and I could not imagine changing anything.

We play piano together, she loves to draw, she loves art, dancing, she sings - we have a blast.

BUT, I am smiling as I read about your little guy, apple. I don't think I would mind that too much either.........as long as I didn't have to clean him up.
