Bold Move

 

This afternoon Dean was sitting at the kitchen counter playing Nintendo, eating a snack.

“You need to put that bowl in the sink please,” I say to him as he finishes up.

He doesn’t even look up, just leans over and whispers to Dale, “I think she is talking to you Daddy.”

Misdirection

Mommy: Dean can we talk about what you said to Astrid? Why were you mean to her?
Dean: I like your hair Mommy.
Mommy: Thank you Dean, but I do really want to talk about what happened.
Dean: [ Pause ] You look so beautiful today.
Mommy: Thank you baby. Why did you say that to Astrid?
Dean: [ Longer pause ] Who did your hair like that?
[ If life were a movie this would be the point where I look into the camera for help from my passive audience ]
