I got up early this morning to get some personal reading time in.  When I realized that it was April Fool’s Day, I knew I had to introduce a very fun holiday to my boy.  As I was reading, Scout had run into our bed, and I could hear him and Micah telling stories and playing under the covers, so I thought it would be a perfect time.  For lack of a better prank (because I couldn’t think of anything else on the fly), I put a little ketchup down my arm.  I started moaning and groaning, “Oh no!  I was making you guys breakfast and I cut myself!”  When I opened the door, they were both sitting up at attention looking at my arm.  It took Micah a moment before he figured out what was going on and then a look of disgust washed over his face.  After Scout sat shocked for a minute, I took a paper towel and said, “I am just kidding….April Fools!”  That is when Micah said, “Maybe you could have picked a different prank.  That isn’t really funny.”

Whoops….I guess i am a little sick in the head.  I could see what Micah was saying when he said it, but as I type this, I am sort of giggling.
