All You Need To Know
We've got this game, which usually spins out of "chase" or hide-and-seek. One or both boys run into their room, and I come in behind them, and they're under a blanket. And then usually Michael says "talking blanket here," and Connor repeats it. So I talk to the talking blanket. "Hmm, I'm looking for Michael and Connor. Have you seen them, talking blanket?" Sometimes I get a straightforward "They're under me," and sometimes they try to steer me in the wrong direction, "You should check in the closet."
So a couple of weeks ago we had a role reversal, and Michael was chasing me. I ran into his room and hid under a blanket, and when he came in I said "Talking blanket here!" Michael said, "I'm looking for my Dad. Have you seen him?"
"I don't know. What does he look like?"
"He has eyes, and a nose, and a mouth, and Jesus made him."
And sure, he didn't mention the sideburns, but I can let that go, just this once.
