Okay, I was a little hasty with that ode to spring in my last post.
Since last writing the temperature plummeted 30+ degrees and stuck somewhere around 25F; Harrison contracted pneumonia; I've become infected with flu; two out of the last five work days were actually spent at work; and my use of TV as a babysitter and my hatred of the upstairs remodeling project have both risen exponentially.
I'm still suffering, but Harrison is on the mend, thanks to antibiotics which in addition to healing his respiratory system have also given him "the trots" (as my Dad called it), which in turn has led to a terrible diaper rash, which in turn has led Harrison to lie about having pooped in order to avoid having his arse wiped.
Me: "Did you poop?"
Harrison: [whimperingly] "Noooo?"
This is rarely convincing, since it is usually accompanied by him grabbing at the back of his diaper and saying, "Owwwww."
When he's 16, remind me how I used to joke about his inability to lie well to his parents.
