Friday night involved packing, feeding all the critters and loading up the car for a weekend in Corolla. On a whim, I pulled into Blockbuster on the way so the kids could pick out a movie to watch on the way down.
While searching through the children’s section with my youngest, I heard a loud bang followed by the sound of multiple thumps and clatters. With a knowing eye, I slowly turned to find my middle son staring down at this:

That’s my boy. The apple does not fall far from the tree. I heard a male voice from beyond call out, “That’s OK, I’ll get it!” And then, “He’s not the first to do that!” By then my son had already mysteriously disappeared while I was walking toward the mess.
I picked up the shelf bracket and spun it around a few times before the employee could get to me. “I’ve got it, really,” he almost imploringly said. I replied, “I’m so sorry. Now tell me again about how he wasn’t the first to do it?” He answered in a profoundly angry (but joking) voice, “OK, I lied. He is the FIRST to do this – EVER!” Heads turned. I smiled. Gotta love it.
Many adventures followed, including my oldest stepping on a buried one of these (notice the MAJOR SPIKES!):
And my daughter getting covered with THIS:
But we survived, and had the most amazing sunny beach weekend EVER! Calamine lotion rocks! Happy Mother’s Day!
