Bruised Fruit...

Sunday night…Im not sure why these weird things always seem to happen on Sunday nights but here we go…

Scene One:

Fade In: The Living Room...Ava is clearly bored.

She is tying a long shoelace to my little toe.
Renee is watching intently to see where this goes.

Me: Ava, what are you doing"?

Ava: 'Working".

Me: "Listen, I know what happens next, you tie the knot too tight, my toe turns purple and I start to scream. Your mom says something clever, like "don't be so dramatic, you have 9 more". Then we end up at the emergency room."

I look up because Renee is laughing so hard that she is coughing but its not at what I said. She has been looking at the other end of the same shoelace and it's tied to Ava's little toe.

Still don't know what her plan was.
