Oh, The Stories I Will Tell
Tonight finds me holding four tickets to see Peking Acrobats with my two oldest children and husband. Can you just imagine the tricks my children will be attempting tomorrow?
I can, especially since I've finally set up my mini-trampoline a few days ago, and both kids have taken turns catching some serious air.
In fact, the other day, I caught my son merrily rebounding away, minus his pants.
"Honey, you need to have pants on!" I had visions of weird impact injuries to delicate parts, and besides, the trampoline was big as you please right in front of the window.
"Mommy, my pants were weighing me down. Now I can jump, and my dingus can jump too! And I can kick my own butt! See? Laller laller laller!" *insert poppin' fresh dough boy laugh and the sound of bare heels hitting bare bottom*
Oh, uh, hm. No. No, that isn't okay. Funny, but no.
"Pants, please. I'll help you get them."
"But, my ding won't fly then."
"Yes. I know. It's for the best." I don't think he bought it, but he did put the pants back on.

OMG. Jumping Dingus. That is pretty damned funny. Did you go into the other room and laugh your brains out?

Well, now, that's a good name for a Peking Acrobat troupe: the Flying Dinguses.

I just shot coffee all over my monitor! Too funny!
And...also, why our trampoline is the outdoor variety. So far, no requests for free-jumping dinguses.

That's hilarious. Tell him he doesn't want it flying around, he might break it . . .

I suggest sharing this one with his prom date, if he doesn't agree to take care of you in your old age. ;)

That has got to be one the funniest things Ihave read in a long time! My little boys are 3 & 1. Now I know what I have to look forward to.

That's.so.cool.
**runs off to see if my dingus can fly too**

Well, he's right, it's important that your dingus be free to fly.

You need to take a picture of this, (not creepy, just a funny shot) so you can show it to his first date. And maybe post it at his wedding!

So dingus huh? Niiiice. There's nothing better than flying man-berries! Ouch! I can't even imagine the damage he's doing to his twig and giggle berries. Say goodbye to the future generations!
