It's Raining Sheet Rock and Sons
A little over a week ago my children and I had been invited over to eat breakfast with a new friend of mine. She made us nice fluffy pancakes and yummy sausage, and served it all with a smile and gracious heart. Now that's a good friend!
My boys had eaten first and while the rest of us were finishing up our meal they had asked if they could explore the upstairs level. My friends house is being remodeled, so we told the boys to be careful. Off they went, the big, brave house hunters to stalk their prey.
Next thing we know Happy Camper had come through the ceiling, just a few feet away from the table where we were happily eating and chatting. It was rather shocking to see small boy's legs dangling down and waving about. Thankfully he had caught himself on the rafters, arms akimbo. After a few seconds of startlement we all burst out laughing. Happy Camper wasn't amused but he didn't make a peep as he dangled there, hoping to be rescued and quite fearful he was going to fall causing him death and destruction.
Kekoa managed to pull him back up through the hole and they came downstairs rather sheepishly. Apparently Happy Camper had asked, "Is ziss stable?" He didn't wait for a response and before he knew it he was on his way to China.
While it was funny, and I was ever so glad that Happy Camper was safe, I was rather worried that my new friend would be upset. Instead she informed me that they had been meaning to take that sheet rock down and the next time they had something they wanted removed they'd be sure to invite us over.
Did I mention she was a good friend? Really, how many people do you know who feed you breakfast and then thank you for having your son come crashing down through their ceiling?
