Today was a long day. So a bath for 2 little boys was something that we all needed to unwind. Usually I can crack open a book once the boys are settled in the tub, if I'm lucky I can read a chapter or even two before getting soggy from all the splashing. Tonight, I decided we all needed to be in bed early, so I just tossed them in and started the wash cycle. While washing Tommy's hair, I noticed his legs looked like an identical (but smaller) version of his dads. Skinny like sticks and white as a neon ghost. Blinding white. So....I commented on how similar they looked to daddy's. John of course chimed in, throwing his leg and about a gallon of water in the air.... and shouted "Do mine look like daddy's too?" "Nope" I replied, "you got legs like your mama, sorry son". With a confused look on his face, Tommy was determined to check this out. He pushed aside the Mr. Bubbles' residue, and said...."Aaaah, John, you DO have legs like Mommy's.....all bruised up and hairy."
Uh.....EXCUSE ME? I didn't sign up for this abuse! What I meant was, he had darker skin and they were short.....sheesh! Some people!
