a little background

So, Frankie came in holding this ceramic totum pole thing my in-laws had painted and we "inherited". He loves to create stories, so i thought nothing of it when he goes into this little story of how the animals were having an identity crisis, one thought he was a bear, the other thought he was a different animal.....etc..... he tells me this story for a minute or two, then as he finishes he says hesitantly.......

"well, they cracked up"..... and showed me how it was now broke in two pieces ........

i didn't even try to hide my smile at his creative confession. it made me laugh, plus i confessed to him that i had knocked it off the table the day before and probably cracked it and when he knocked it over, it just finished the job! lol, oh well, nothing a few minutes and a little super glue couldn't fix. now we have given the reindeer a little therapy and they are back to normal, sitting back on the table......and to all a good night.
