Perks of Parenthood
 This evening Emma and Zoe were playing on the couch while Heather was finishing with dinner. I was helping with getting the food to the table. Meanwhile the girls were giggling and laughing - flat out making a lot of noise. I wasn't playing close attention, but it looked like Zoe was tickling Emma.
Suddenly Emma shouts, "DAD! Zoe is scatching my nipple! She's supposed to be scratching my back and she's scratching my nipple!!"
Now the noises I heard coming from the couch were not ones I ever associated with back scratching. But never the less, I couldn't pass up a perfect opportunity to exploit my role as father and responsible adult to put myself into a position to utter - with all seriousness (at least as far as Emma and Zoe were concerned) - a sentence that in all my years on the planet I never expected to ever say.
"Zoe, do not scratch your sister's nipples. There will be no nipple scratching."
God, I love being a parent sometimes.Labels: Family, Fun
