Zurg

Dear Zurg,

Shame on you! I thought you were Liam's friend. Why do you insist on making appearances in his dreams...or rather, his nightmares?!

Last night at 3 AM the poor child woke up calling, "DADDY!" Apparently, you'd made your appearance and frightened the little dear so badly that he woke up and called for protection. After installing Buzz Lightyear at the head of his bed and saying a little prayer, Liam finally decided to fall back to sleep. A faster resolution than expected, but still...

Haven't we been good to you? When you first broke and we told Liam that maybe Papa could fix you, didn't Liam take one look at Papa when he arrived and run from the room to fetch you for your repair appointment? Then, when you finally broke beyond repair, didn't we go out the very next day and replace you because Liam couldn't live without you for even that long? For goodness sake, Liam wants to be you for Halloween next year! Could you cut the kid a little slack and just behave yourself?!

Sincerely,
Mommy

Evidence

I discovered these pictures on the camera this morning.

I'd like to think that the sharks are devouring an octopus...maybe not the most pleasant idea, but more pleasant than what I believe is the actual case.

Part of me just knows that that's no octopus...those are intestines.

The two pink fish halves prove my point. They would have to be pink, wouldn't they?

Oh, the things I've learned living with boys.
