Perfect Moment Monday: The Half Dead Big Boys

Perfect Moment Monday is about noticing a perfect moment rather than about creating one. Perfect moments can be momentous or ordinary or somewhere in between.

We gather here once a week to engage in mindfulness about something that is right with our world. Everyone is welcome to join. Details on how to participate are at the bottom of this post, complete with bloggy bling.

Please visit the links of the participants at the bottom.

Here's a perfect moment from my week. I hope you'll share yours, too.

====================================

Roger had surgery on Friday for his collarbone broken in The Accident. My brother-in-law, Tom, had surgery the previous Friday for an elbow broken in a lame attempt to one-up Roger.

Later that evening, Sheri (my sister) and Tom visited us for the weekend. Though Roger had been snoozing all afternoon, he perked right up when Tom entered the picture.

Our two boys joked long into the night about their accidents, surgeries, nurses, scam to get their wives to wait on them, prescription drugs, undone yard tasks, and what they plan to do next summer (which better include taking their wives to BlogHer).

It was awesome to see them enjoying themselves so much. They didn't allow their cracked ribs (7 between them) to impede the laughter.

So, you may be asking yourself, what's with the title of this post?

This morning, I woke up Reed right before Sheri and I went to a yoga class to tell him that Daddy and Uncle Tom would be taking care of him.

"OK, Mama. You're leaving me with the Half-Dead Big Boys?"

It wasn't said with sarcasm, but with earnestness.

The kid cracks. me. up.
