Wife: Do you secretly play with the kids toys when they aren't home?

Me: What? Why would you ask that?

Wife: I saw you waving Thor's mallet.

Me: It's Mjölnir. A hammer to build or for war.

Wife:

Me: *wondering if I should tell her only worthy people can lift it*

I played 8 in a game of one-on-one today and nearly lost. I guess it's time for me to work on my game or change the rules.

Today I'm grateful for good friends that go way back. A former teammate made my son's day. We got to play in their pratice facility and were introduced to college basketball players.

[Chris @GettingMyDadOn]

There's so much to be grateful for. My kids, my wife, my siblings, and my parents are at the top of the list.

Today’s kids would never be able to handle this pain

@TwinzerDad They file their elbows to fine points.

[Chris @GettingMyDadOn]

Why are you wide awake at 3am you ask? Well, I've had to carry both children from my bed 3 TIMES back to their own beds tonight.

I'm afraid to go to sleep, I've had too many bony elbows and feet in the back.
