Swashbuckling Swordsmen

Last weekend Kevin and I rented the newest Chronicles of Narnia from Redbox because we had a free rental and there wasn't anything better to choose. We let the boys stay up and watch it because they had lots of energy to burn. During the movie there is a sword fight between two of the characters. Immediately following the end of the scene Cooper ran to the silverware drawer and produced two butter knives. Kevin and I at first were surprised and told him to put them away. But after he went to his brother and said "Here Aiden," then attempted to sword fight with him. We thought it was too cute and imaginative to take away the fun factor. So after a good 15 minutest of sword fighting between the four of us we put the butter knives away and continued to watch the movie. It's the little things like that which light up my days and remind me how great it is to be a parent.

Io non parlo inglese, ma puoi far tradurre la pagina come io ho fatto con la tua. Hai ragione è bello essere genitori. I figli riempiono la nostra vita, ci fanno ridere anche quando non ne abbiamo voglia. A me tutto questo è negato. Con mio figlio ho chiuso da molto tempo. Io non mi arrendo però. Sono molto malato, ho poco da vivere e vorrei tanto poterlo rivedere prima che non possa farlo più. Ti auguro una vita felice e piena di soddisfazioni. Enrico Cagnoni

"Yes, you are!" said he. "You'd have a high old time for a calendar month. Then you'd get uneasycheap jerseys . You'd build you a big house, which would keep you mad for six months more. Then you'd degenerate to buying subscription books, nfl jerseys cheap and wheezing around a club and going by the cocktail route. You'd look sweet retiring, now, cheap jerseys from china wouldn't you?"

Welton grinned back, a trifle ruefully.
