I’m reminded of a funny incident from when Conor went (and passed) kindergarten.\u00a0 It went like this.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Conor… Mom, today we played a new game and I want to tell you about it.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Okay, first off let’s be honest.\u00a0 We all know that kids don’t organize their thoughts that well.\u00a0 I paraphrased because the actual conversation was done while walking\u00a0a dancing, bouncing pattern and sounded like this… “Mom… I want to tell you… we played a new game… well it was a game I never played… it was just me and some friends… Mrs. West [teacher]… I want to tell you about this new game we played.”<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

And he wonders why I interrupt him sometimes.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Me… Ooo a new game!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Conor… Yeah, it was Olivia and me and Vincent and Jamie. [Side note… Jamie is a girl]<\/em>\u00a0 It was a chasing game.\u00a0 Jamie was “it” and she had to catch us.\u00a0 When she caught us she had to kiss us.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Me… (chuckling) Did she catch you?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Conor… Yeah, she caught all of us.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I briefly wonder at how Olivia felt about being caught and kissed.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Me… Whose idea was this game?\u00a0\u00a0 I had my suspicions on Jamie.<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Conor… Vincent<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

He went on but I barely paid attention I was so shocked.\u00a0 Shy little Asian Vincent!\u00a0 <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
