We were playing hide-and-seek. Nicky hid under the bed. When I found him, he kicked his leg out. I moved my head so as to avoid a black eye.
"Mommy, can you put your head back," he asked me.
"No, Nicky," I responded. "I don't want you to kick me in the face."
"I won't kick you in the face really hard. Just a little."
Gee, kiddo, sounds like a win-win situation all 'round. . .
Silly me. I didn't actually think he was aiming for my head.
Who I am
- Miki
- I am a 29-year-old mother of two. Oh, did I say 29? I meant 32. Uh, 35. My kids are Nicky (5) and Laney (3). I'm American. My husband Seven is Norwegian. We live in Norway. I was born in Washington State, graduated from high school and college in Hawaii and lived in several other places in between and after. I've lived in five states, three countries (on three different continents). I speak one language fluently and two others brokenly. Here's a riddle for you: My mother's Japanese, my father's American, my kids are Norwegian, so what does that make me?
