worm statue

I will probably post another day, when I have time to upload photos, about our fun weekend party with friends. But, for now, I just had to share something Tyler said today while I can still remember it.

We were by the lake at the park, and had been throwing sticks and rocks into the lake, trying to see how far we could throw. Tyler was digging in the dirt for more rocks. He picked something up and then tossed it away stating, "that looks like a worm statue." I wish you could have seen the look on Tyler's face when I explained that this was dog poop. For lack of words, he looked shocked. You can pretend I said something more mature or appropriate like feces...but I didn't. Then we both had a good laugh.

Anyway, for my boy who is constantly picking his lip, he had a hard time remembering to keep his hands off of his face. Then he had a bathroom emergency during which I discovered that he has some strange swollen spots on his legs.

I was worried, so we went home and put him straight into the bath. Apparently, he is now old enough that I need to be careful not to show my concern over his possible ailments. When I yelled for Wayne to come look at his legs, it sent Tyler into a tizzy. Ah well, he is calm now. We'll see what comes of his strange spots and contact with worm statues.
