On another weekly call, with RanRan, Danny asked, "Hey, do you remember when Mom kicked the chair from underneath you while you were talking to your girlfriend?"

"Ya. It made me mad back then but now it seems kinda funny."

It was funny for me back then. I'm washing the dishes and you are leaning against the wall with your chair on two legs.

You didn't know Mom could hear you talking to your girlfriend.

You bravely said, "My Mom is so mean."

Your Mom came racing into the kitchen like a tornado and kicked the chair out from underneath you. I had never seen such a surprised look on your face.

You stood up like a young deer in headlights. Your lips were asking WHY and not a sound was coming out. Your arms were stretched out, your face was contorted and you were shaking your head.

"Well, I didn't want my girlfriend to hear me."

Do you remember what your Mom said?

"Ya. she said, I don't want you lying to your girlfriend."

Did you learn anything from that?

"Ya, make sure Mom is not close by if I am showing off by trash talkin and saying something bad."

OK then, I'll be calling next week.

"Later Dad."
