Much Respec'

After Bay Leaf and I returned from the giggle-fest that was Corpse Bride (this is one seven-year-old who gets way more jokes than he should) I gave in to his nagging and measured him and his little brother against their kitchen wall. I marked their heights and next to each one wrote the date and their names. Only I used their blog names. Machiavelli thought this was hilarious. "Machibelly - hee hee hee." But Bay Leaf scribbled his blog name out and wrote his real name. "It's my name," he told me. "It's not funny."

Kid, on this blog it is.
