Meep. Koosh. Wiggle-wiggle.

My daughter turns a dozen, today. Yep. (Next year they’ll both be teenagers. Heavens help us.) Okay, seriously, she’s an incredible kid. Or, young person, I suppose it’s about time to say. I’m awfully proud of her, and I look forward to seeing in what direction she decides to take her life.

Happy Birthday, sweetie.

(The entry title refers to a little game she and I have been playing pretty much her entire life… “Meep” is a touch on the nose, “Koosh” is a pat to the top of the head, and the newly-added “Wiggle-wiggle” is grabbing earlobes and wiggling. That one’s her own invention. Way to go, Miss Exe-Koosh-ener.)

    I just hope that she doesn’t evolve that little joke even further. It was just enough with koosh and meep. But NO, she gave us wiggle-wiggle. Again, i just hope it doesn’t go farther than that.

    Aw, come on! Maybe next year, when she’s a teeeeenager, she’ll add “whap whap whap” to the mix… that where she pummels the victim mercilessly on their arm with her fists *grin*

    No no no, you don’t need to be giving her ideas! *chuckle*

    *chuckle* Just don’t be passing those ideas on to your sister Spud. If she never finds out about “whap whap whap”, we’ll all be better off and with less bruises than if it’s discovered.

    Well, actually… she’s already doing “whap whap whap,” except that she hasn’t thought about it that way.

    …And she only does it to me.
