Laughter is highly valued in our household. I am not a serious person and in fact comedy in our house is an asset to whoever can figure out how to incite giggling. Logan has always been a great sport, you can joke about almost anything and he never gets offended or upset. He rarely tells jokes or pulls pranks because he is not good at it. In fact, jokes are pretty painful to listen to coming from him.
Well tonight at the dinner table, I think he thought he would give funny another shot.
This teenage child who I bore and raised got up from the table and put his dish in the sink. He then causally walked over to Barkley(my cranky kitty cat), and picked him up. He then proceeded to lick Barkley's head like it was a Popsicle. The look on all of our faces have must been priceless. We were all in shock.
The cat looked like, WOW this is really happening.
No one could speak for the first couple of seconds, then Joe finally said to me....."Woman the boy is licking the cat." As if I missed it.
"Aren't you going to say something. "
"Nope...can't stop laughing," I said as the laughter had finally rose to my throat.
There really was no words, just a profound confusion and hysterical laughter.
Logan put the cat down and walked in his room as if nothing happened. Once again my husband try to convince me to do something.
I just responded with laughter.
Then Logan came back in the dining room two minutes later to ask for Claratin because his tongue itched. He has always been allergic to cats, not sure why licking the cat was a good idea.
So yes, Logan got away with his little display because he made me laugh.
However I am now concerned that Barkley may need some counseling in the future.
