It's clear and cold cold cold today. Bodhi comes home from wherever these days and wants to get in his jammies. His dad let him, then fucked off to his studio forty minutes before I had to go get Olivia. Sigh.
Bodhi cheered up again in the car, in his warm coat and funky brown hat, settled in his car seat for a thumb suck. I heard him say, 'Woahhhhh!!! There's smoke coming out of my thumb!'
I looked at his delighted little face in the rearview mirror, round, chubby and rosy cheeked beneath his wooly hat - and sure enough, the thumb he was goggling at with amazement was steaming merrily.
You know it's winter when you find yourself with a steaming thumb :)

Kid's reactions to the mystical stuff is wonderful to watch :) Don't burn the sausages!
That is cool! A smoking thumb. Excellent.
I need a cup of tea now.
OMG, that IS cold!!!!
I think I was only aware of steam coming from peeing in the snow...
from cats and dogs, not me, silly ;)
Aw bless... and damn those menfolk who think only of a moment's peace, not the rest of the day's schedules.
