the greatest thing about having young children is the constant barrage of non sequiturs. not just in what they say, but in their movements, their games, and almost everything they do. it can be very confusing.
yesterday both boys came rambling into the living room where my wife an i sat, they were giggling maniacally. the naked one was holding an egg timer that rang only a second after they had entered the room. upon hearing the alarm the one wearing a pillow case on his head said "awwwe, maaannnnnnn!" then they both started giggling again and sprinted out of the room. the entire scene took only a few seconds.
the wife and i looked at each other silently for a second then resumed reading the paper. there was nothing to say because there was nothing to understand.
