Arguing

My goodness! They argue ALL THE TIME!

"Muuuummmm!"

It drives me crazy. I sometimes feel like my head will explode and my body will just go poof! and disappear. How did my mother take this stuff for 20 years? My Goodness, I give my parents Merit Awards and Stickers on their collars for putting up with this stuff so silently for all those years...

And then...

I go into their bedrooms to kiss them goodnight (and pull up their covers and turn their fans off that are on as fast as they can go!) and I find this... this beautiful beautiful image of two little boys, legs entwined, sleeping together, loving one another...

Pass me a tissue please... it brings a momentary tear to my eye.
(And then it's morning and they are at it again!)
