Note to Jim: Dear husband, I know how much football means to you. And I know how much you love buying sports gear, especially if you think it will spark Liam's interest in a sport. I know that if someone had given you "receiver gloves" as a boy that you would have been so over the top with excitement that you probably would have signed up for football that instant and played it throughout your entire school career, regardless of whether you were any good or whether your Canadian high school even had a football league...
So it is with great regret that I must tell you this. I know Liam wanted to sleep in his receiver gloves the night you bought them. Yes, that was cute. But...I saw him on the way to bed, wearing all black and doing something that I first thought was an interpretive dance. Then I heard the hissing sounds, and I knew. Instead of receiver gloves, I believe you mistakenly gave Liam Spiderman gloves. And he loves them. I think he was spinning webs all night long.
Please don't count on the football scholarship yet, dear.

And an update to a previous post where I mentioned Rubber Man. Liam tells me that he is actually called Mr. Plastic, but his real name is O'Brian. Who knew.

Love it!!!
Spiderman gloves - and dashing Jim's hopes!
Maybe he'll get his football and hockey player with Owen?
Hope all is well.
Now that you have hot water - so much better, huh? I had my first day in a new apartment with no hot water and I was ready to move out. I complained to someone and they said "well did you light the pilot light on the hot water heater"? Well you know I might be an engineer, but I have no common sense!!
