As I drove up to my house early this evening I saw a cluster of smallish people outside my front door.
When they turned and saw me they ran towards my car - and they weren't even my offspring. They were some of my favorite kids from our neighborhood.
"Hey, Sisto Bwack!" Super C yelled as he ran to me. "These are for you! For your birfday!" He and his brother, along with N~, handed me a bag filled with treats. "Thanks, guys!" I said. "This totally makes my day!"
"Guess what else?!" Super C asked with all the excitement that could possibly be contained in a 6-year-old body. "N~, do the bark!"
N~ looked at me with a sly grin and let out a few barking noises. "Can you be-weave it?!" Super C asked. "It sounds like a REAL dog!" N~ then turned to Super C and said, "Do the burps!"
Super C produced a series of quick burps-on-demand. "Isn't that awesome?!" N~ proclaimed excitedly. "It sounds like REAL burps!"
The treats were fantastic, but nothing compares to the method of delivery.
Kids. Are. Awesome.

If you have not had the pleasure of hearing N~ bark, it is time. He had us cracking up at our house. He sounds just like a small yippy dog.
Again Gerberta, I'm so glad you find the humor in less than perfect behavior/manners. And you have a gift of turning it into a fun story. Always love reading your blog. Happy belated birthday!
You've got some great friends there!. Thoughtful and very funny... Kids are amazing huh?
Too funny! That would be a 'gram' worth tipping!
How adorable! Happy Birfday!!!
