So many firsts since we moved into our first home! I'm remembering a blog post back in spring...I think it had something to do with an "uneventful" year?
Earlier today, we were all lounging around the family room and Joseph began screaming. So, we gave what has become our standard reply: "Would you like to go outside and play, Joseph?". And to which Joseph said, "Yes!". Off he goes, tromping through our .25 acre backyard, exploring to his little hands' content.
Then he approached The Fence. We've told him about The Fence and The Unfriendly Dogs on the other side of it. But a boy's gotta do what a boy's gotta do. He stuck he finger into the hole in the fence.
I can only guess what actually happened, because I was inside, reclining on the couch and staving off a headache. All we heard were his pitiful screams and cries. Fortunately (thankfully!), Joseph was crying only because he was scared - there were no injuries to speak of this time. (Maybe because he's had such a wonderful experience with Tasha and Binka, he was shocked at these two dogs' behavior?) Anyhow, it took a few minutes of crying and shhing, and discussion of the "woud puppies", before he was ready to take off again, this time steering clear of The Fence.
