Hobbes at 18 months

Hobbes at 18 months

My little boy is growing up.

(Sniffle.)

Unfortunately, his brain is still the size of a brussel sprout, if recent activities of his are any indication. My coworkers assure me that the things he does are, “Typical for little boys.” After which they add thoughtfully, “Big boys, too.” Which is a nice thought, but I’ve yet to see a grown man run head-first into a bookshelf and give himself a giant lump on the head, just because it was there.

Later…

I take it back. Apparently, my coworkers were absolutely right. Well, thank God for that. I can’t wait to see what intellectual heights my son will rise to — or ram into, as the case may be. (Is ‘heights’ the word? Or do I mean ‘lows’?)

I guess Hobbes is developing right on schedule.

The internet is so comforting.

Things that make you go, “…what?”
