monster

he has a sweet face, a charming smile, and some swag...a good boy, a mama's boy. however, looks can be very deceiving. this is the case with my nephew or "monster" as his father calls him. i guess many of you are wondering, why call this innocent looking child "monster?" well, i can give you a laundry list of reasons why; however, i'll only name a few. it could the time he put his toy in the microwave and said, "mommy, mommy, truck on fire!" or, the time making his mom wonder where he is only for her to hear a ringing door bell and devilish laugh...ahhhh, she found him! this "monster" snuck out the patio door, walked around to the front of the house, and obnoxiously rang the door bell. or, the time when he was in the bathroom playing with his toy in the toilet and nearly flooded the bathroom.

now, i pose the question, should we call my four year old little man by his name which begins with the letter "i," or should we call him "monster?" you decided.

please provide comments on this piece i call, "monster." let me know what you think.

i love you little man!

thanks!
