I Have Boys...

Two weeks ago I asked my two boys (13 and 9) to vacuum out the van. While doing so, they wondered what it would be like to suck their skin with the vacuum hose. I imagine the conversation went like this… “Hey Brandon, I wonder what would happen if I stuck this powerful vacuum on my eye socket?” Both did it. My 13 year old ended up with bruising around his eye. It is an Oreck brand… the kind that can pick up a bowling ball!

We wouldn’t have known except that we saw the bruising happen about a day later. After a lecture on “You can put your eye out with that!” We all laughed.

Both my boys are very intelligent… just being boys. Wrestling on the floor, going to see Superman together, telling corny jokes… It’s awesome!
