I went to the neighborhood pool with my kids today. My daughter asked me to play “Cthulhu and Lulu.” This is a game we invented a few years ago; we pretend to be giant sleeping sea monsters and when the other people at the pool (usually her brothers) make too much noise, we awake from our slumber and splash the tiny imaginary town (usually by the pool ladder) into oblivion.
And your daughter, realising the weight of sentiment at the future pool party is for 'Marco Polo' and against 'Cthulu and Lulu', will wisely go with the flow, shrug and say "Okay. So whose going to be Marco and who Polo?" 🦈 & 🏊♀️
Oh, I've passed on so much weirdness I don't even know where to begin.
We just made up a new game, but I can't share it here, because I plan to write about it for Christmas. :-)
Your kids will always love you, even if they're pretending with all their might that they don't in front of their friends. For now, do like I do and revel in the season of shameless love that happens when they're young. My kids tell me I'm great every day and I try really hard to listen. Mostly because I really need to hear it. 😉
I only know who Cthulhu is because YOU mentioned it once somewhere and I had to look it up. 😂
Still don't know what LOVECRAFT is. You were supposed to explain it to me ages ago. Add "teach Meg about LOVECRAFT" to your New Year's Resolutions, please. :-) I'll add "Google it, dummy" to mine. 😇

She will be the wisest, yes!

Merry Christmastime, Wil!
Thanks Meg! Merry Christmas time indeed. Also, winter solstice! Longest night! When ghosts cross over!
Ugh. The joke is, I DONT EVEN LIKE LOVECRAFT! or ghosts! But I do like A Christmas Carol!
