Day 25 -- The Day of AWESOMENESS!!!!

Monday, October 4, 2010

Karma.  When it comes back to bite you in the butt, it sucks.  But when all of the good deeds you have ever done converge in a burst of rainbows and unicorns at that one glorious point in your life, it is a wonderful, wonderful thing.  Like today.  I have been showing Jack karate videos on YouTube to prepare him for karate class.  It is good to know he pays attention.

I was standing in line at the BX and some bitchy lady with a kid a little bigger than Jack behind me noticed Jack's Bama shirt and said, "Ooh, I am training my son to beat up little boys who wear Alabama shirts."  Who says that kind of thing about someone's kid? I mean, really!  I was about to reply, "Sounds like someone is bitter about the Alabama/Arkansas game!!!"  when my son decided to pay me back for every sleepless night, every sacrifice, ever bit of the 11lbs I toted around and gave birth to.  He turned and karate chopped that kid in the neck, yelling "KA-CHOW!!!!". 

***ANGELS SING***

The kid fell on the ground, yelling and his mom looked horrified.  I told the lady, "No...I don't think anyone will be beating him up anytime soon.  Sorry about that."   And I smiled the biggest, most brilliant smile of my life. 

Now, I am not condoning Jack hitting other kids because I had a talk with him about that after we got out to the car.  And I feel sorry for the other little kid (who was almost 6!) because he couldn't help it that his mom has PMS because her team sucks.  It was just the feeling you get when that cop speeds past you and catches the guy who just cut you off, you know?  Only times 1 bajillion zillion million.

My kid is pure awesomeness.

After we got home, we made Trick or Treat bags for Daddy and his work people and for Uncle Scott and Jack painted Daddy a rhino and put stickers on his card.  It was a good day.  :)

(Photos number 11 and 12 -- This is the look on his face when I bared my teeth and showed him my fake purple vampire fangs, haha!  I had the camera ready.  Picture 13 -- he had to wear some too.)
