I hate to follow the previous, heart-wrenching post with this, but Lucas just walked in here with some dirty underwear he found in the laundry pile around his neck like a necklace.
What is it with tiny tots and their obsession with underwear? Ellie Beth LOVES to put on big sister Emma's panties over her clothes all the time. Luckily, she only seems to go for this from the clean laundry stacks while folding. She ran around in a pair of Josh's boxer briefs all afternoon once (big sister sinched them up in the back with a clothes pin). I usually crack up, since she pulls them out while I fold laundry... but I would have to be grossed out by dirty ones. I will have to be extra careful to keep the dirty laundry bins secure from EB! Yikes!
a little levity can be a good thing after such a profound emotional experience. I don't know if it was "profound" for you, per se, but that sort of thing would have had me beside myself. I still remember walking up to my Granny's house after she had been through radiation treatments and lost a bunch of weight and aged so much - through the kitchen window I saw her and I thought it was my great grandmother, her mother who died when I was a kid. I was shaking! But, yah, kids and undies - funny stuff!
