Boys will be boys
"What the bloody hell have you done"? The boys looked sheepish at their mom. "Oh for heavens sake I just despair. What’s wrong with you? Don’t you care"?
The boys were covered in red gloss. “Get in the kitchen to scrub it off”. Mother scrubbed hard as she could. “Any harder and ill draw blood”.
Dad came in from gardening “What’s all the noise and screaming”? “I’ve had enough" mom told the man. “I don’t want them” she began.”
“Now now,” Dad interrupted quick. “Be calm and patient that’s the trick” “Boys will be boys, just having fun” “As long as they have hurt no-one”
Mother stood up, a smile appeared. “You’re right of course she volunteered. come out front and you can see, Just how harmless boys can be”.
Outside dad’s pride and joy was stood. A white Ferrari with dash of wood. Only now it was completely red, Even windows, seats and tyre tread.
Dads still in Bed. Dr Fogg

| LMAO! I was raised with a sister so when I had a son, boys growing up were foreign to me. I remember my husband and his " boys will be boys " comments. This takes the prize and thanks for the laugh! Quite lovely and much enjoyed indeed.

| I have two brothers, and I can't complain about them because my mom claims I spoiled them. The older one, he's going on 21 and still acts like he's five. The baby one is younger and more sensible but when all the cousins get together about 13 boys to be exact....there is nothing safe anymore. Humorous tale, brilliantly penned, and honestly the best example of "boys will be boys"
Love, ~Soph~ | |

| Oh my gosh, my Dad would be fuming! As would my mum actually, although I believe she'd get some kind of twisted pleasure out of it knowing her. Absolutely adored it! EXALT.

Had We But Worlds Enough, And Time . . . | November 5th 2013, 11:57 am by Jamie | I never wanted to write this post. Life, however, brings to us changes of necessity, not changes we want.
Unfortunately, and as evidenced by the past few months' activities, I do not have the time to properly govern the use of this site anymore. While there are visitors every day, the posts by members are becoming fewer and farther between, and the staff participation is just as sparse.
