There's no crying in baseball on Saturdays

 

Dear Lola,
Perhaps you did not realize that today is Saturday or, as I like to call it, The Day Mommy Sleeps In.  Because surely if you had remembered, you would not have felt compelled to start up the Death Howl at 7:30am, causing Mommy to startle suddenly awake and race downstairs in a panic to make sure that someone was not dying down there.

Seeing as how you are both very much alive and well, let's go over the rules for the Death Howl, shall we?  The Death Howl shall only be used if:

1. You are actually dying.
2. Your brother Oliver is dying.
3. Your daddy is dying.
4. Someone is breaking in and we might all soon be, well, dying.


Do you notice a theme here?  While I appreciate your desire to 'help' your Daddy shovel the driveway at 7:30am on The Day That Mommy Sleeps In, you are not actually dying to get out there, so let's keep the Death Howl to ourselves next time, okay?

Sincerely,
One Grumpy Mommy

Oh doggy! She must have thought if she was awake, everyone else should be awake too. I've been known to do that myself... :)

Oh no! I would not have been too pleased about that!
