Mar. 7, 2008 - The Good Humor Man
Last week Q asked me for a bowl of ice cream. Simple enough. Then, he added, “Can you make it a really big, big bowl?” I looked at that cute little face, weighed my consequences, and decided to humor him. So, I said, “You’re Quinn, I’ll humor you.” (yet another Princess Bride reference around here)
A few days pass and the kids again asked for ice cream. I said sure, and as I was busy doing something, I said “dish it up yourselves”. As they are doing so, I overheard Q say “I’m going to humor myself.” I found it funny.
Finally last night the boys asked for ice cream and as it is almost gone I said “sure”. Once again Q said “I’m going to humor myself again, I really am. I’m going to humor myself…….a lot.” It may be terribly wrong to find it funny because there are quite possibly underlying greed issues here…but I couldn’t help myself. I had to laugh.
