Saturday Night Wonders

Things I wonder about this evening as my whole family sleeps and I can't because I'm still too cold...

I wonder if Leo knows he's a boy. Or, more specifically, that he and Mike are both boys and that boys are different somehow from girls. He LOVES Mike. I'm ok, but MIKE IS HIS FAVORITE. And he loves men's voices. The girls were not this way.

I wonder if the cats will eventually risk life and limb to attack the bird cage and then, of course, fail to get the cage open and actually eat the bird.

I wonder if our stray is ok. I saw him Friday evening but not since. It was damned cold today.

I wonder if Mike and I will manage to get the kitchen floor down tomorrow. I wonder how we will accomplish it with the kids invading.

I wonder if I will ever get my room clean again. It is the Dorian Gray of my whole house. The rest of the house is clean because my room is not.

I wonder if the BBC will prove smarter than Fox or HBO. Just in general.

I wonder if I can get the February Lady Sweater done in time for February.

I wonder if I will finish the book club book by tomorrow evening. Actually, I don't wonder about that. I left it at home while I went to Cairo for Christmas and, thus, my free time this month was taken and it will not get done. Hmm.

I wonder why Leo has decided to wake just now. Dang babies.

I like posts like this. I should write some posts like this. I should do a lot of things.

What does that mean, the Dorian Gray of the house? I know the book, Dorian Gray, but I'm not sure what that meant.

My IQ just showed itself, didn't it? :-)

And, I think, boys with strong male role models DO know they are different. But boys who are treated like girls, like everyone is all equal in every way, grow up not having the feelings you described. I believe we are all equal, but in different, beautiful ways. In the ways that God created us different but equally important. Just my 2 cents.
