The Show

The Scene: Four adorable children sitting in tiny little chairs at the side of the road in front of a big, old house. They're selling cookies and water. $0.50 for cookies $0.25 for a cup of water. Mia is getting lots of attention over her broken arm with a bright pink cast. Two simple balloons taped to a basket that contains the cookies, napkins and cups are the only items on the table. The salespeople are eating and drinking the merchandise at a slow but steady pace. The sale is going swimmingly. All the cookies have sold and they are closing up shop. Lennon shouts some request which I deny sort of only half knowing what he asked for. Suddenly, we all turn around and look up the steps to see quite a sight. A tiny little blonde cherub...completely naked! He was doing a funny little dance and singing about being naked. We all laughed until he turned his back to us and started peeing. Right on the walkway up to our house. Right in the front yard. Off a busy street during rush hour. Fully nude. Nothing says bake sale like a little boy peeing on the sidewalk.

Jay says, "go Lennon go!" And Aunt Hill says that Lennon, you fit in perfectly with your wild and naked loving cousin Jack. Love you so much!! Also love how much you make me laugh!
