These are just a couple little things that made us laugh in the last week.
Steve has an abundance of stuffed animals and they occasionally have need of surgery. Max, the dog from The Grinch that stole Christmas was about to lose his head this past week. As I walked by Steve was examining Max and said to me “Sue sews?” To which I answered – but Daddy is sooo much better at sewing! Later that evening, Steve approached his dad with my sewing kit and Max.
Delicate Surgery
The next story comes from David. David was driving Steve home from church on Sunday and the boys stopped at Arby’s for lunch. As they approached a rather steep hill David began to encourage his little car (Myrtle is her name) . Myrtle does not always have a lot of get up and go and tends to take it real slow up the hills. As David was encouraging Myrtle, Steve leaned over and patted the dashboard – “Myrtle’s tired” he said. I think that rendered David a bit speechless and made me just howl with laughter!
Occasionally Myrtle probably needs to be manually downshifted to stay in the power band.
“Myrtle’s tired”….I love it! Gives some insight into Steve’s thinking, ability to sympathize with someone/something.
