If you haven’t read this post here:

you should or this won’t make any sense.

Anyway… As if it wasn’t bad enough that Roan’s latest journal entry was a drawing of himself pinned under a couch with the caption “I fell under a couch. Worst Day Ever.” Roan has now started to be sarcastic about the whole situation. Because he knows how much it frustrates me.

I don’t know if sarcastic is the right word. And I don’t know at what age kids understand sarcasm. But today, sitting in the sun at the beautiful New Orleans Zoo Roan was eating a hot dog and started laughing. Then said, “I know what I’ll write in my journal about today!! It’s TERRIBLY INTERESTING!!!”

Me… excited that perhaps he was going to write about the two headed snake we saw… or the orangutans or any number of interesting things we saw and did… said asked excitedly, “WHAT??”

“Well, as I said, it’s TERRIBLY interesting. I’m going to write, “Today I ate a hot dog.”

Great Roan. Glad you’re picking up on the high points of your vacation.

PS

Just now Roan has decided to write in his journal about today. His sentence is: “I SEEN A TWO HEADED SNAKE.”
