Well, today was Tyson's "big test" to substitute for Daddy, and he failed miserably.
Miley (our kitty), has been obsessed with "hunting" lately. She's caught some pretty nasty bugs, a butterfly, a humming bird...and now...a LIZARD!! None of us girls were brave enough to go outside to take Miley away from the freakishly large lizard (yes, even I was scared--even though Jordan said it was "crazy" for a 31-yr-old to be scared of a lizard). So, I thought..."Tyson can do it, he's a boy"...well, I was wrong. He sat about 10 feet away and said "No Mom, I don't like the lizard, it's scary."
So there you have it: We CAN'T survive without Mike. Oh, and the garbage is getting full too...maybe Tyson's "man enough" for that job...probably not.
(The jacket says "Canada" but this picture was taken at Disneyland. Tyson climbed into the shrubs and said "Mommy, take my picture"--I've raised him well)

You didn't finish the story, so who took the lizard away from Miley, or did you take Miley away from the lizard???
Miley just got tired of it and let it run away...thank goodness!
Poor Tyson! At least he's not afraid to show his fear--not like one of those guys who think they have to be macho all the time :) I'm glad it turned out okay in the end!
It's so funny because if Dustin is home and I see a bug, I scream and freak out until he comes and kills it. Whenever he is out of town I become a completely different person. Two weeks ago I woke the kids up and noticed a huge old scorpion on the floor. Instead of screaming, I calmly told the kids to get out of the kitchen, went and got a shoe and killed that sucker. I don't know why it seems I can only suck it up when I have to.
That is so funny! Man, up Tyson! Yeah, maybe you should wait until he's brave enough to poop in the potty!!
Cute, Cute, Cute little guy
