The Middle One: Mom, did you know the Batman Pj’s you got me came with a Bat-a-rang?
(For those of you unfamiliar with your Super Hero accessories, a Bat-a-rang is a boomerang-Batman style. It took me months of thinking the Middle One had a speech impediment to realize that was an actual word and item.)
Me: No, that’s cool bud. I didn’t even see it. Was it hanging with the tag?
TMO: No, let me show you. (Runs upstairs. Stands at top of stairs with plastic hanger.) See, it came on this-a bat-a-rang. I know it looks exactly like a hanger, but it is a new kind of Bat-a-rang. See? (Raises it up in the air.)
Me: NO!! Don’t throw that at me.
TMO:Alright I’ll take it downstairs.
Me: No let’s just put it back in your room kay?
TMO:OK. (runs to room, then downstairs past me to basement)
TMO: pushes door ever so slightly open…stretches from stairs across kitchen…lays hanger on counter. All I can see from my vantage point is a wrist and hanger. He says, “nope, it’s right on the kitchen counter. Can you see it?”
I would have punished him if I weren’t laughing so hard and he wasn’t so cute in that damn Batman cape.
OMG that is too funny. Just reading the blod had me laughing out loud, would have loved to seen it in person.
