Toots.

It's bedtime and I was saying goodnight to Luca while he was trying to watch hockey. I did what any reasonable mom who was being ignored would do. I stood in front of the TV until he gave me a kiss goodnight. His reaction?

"I can't see, toots!"

Thank you, makers of Toy Story 3 and Mr. Potato Head. You deserve all the credit for this one.

I have a problem with my ears.

Let me set the scene...Luca and I are sitting at the Pediatrician and he has a toy from his doctor kit. He is looking in my ears when this conversation goes down:

Me: "How do my ears look, doc?"
Luca: "Hmmmmm...yup, you got lotsa crotches in there."

This could be a very serious condition for me.
