The pressure mounts...

BG: So, we have to start doing this blog thing before you go to bed at night. I know, since you like to stay up, that you will do whatever it takes to not go to bed...
LG: Yeah, right...
BG: Exactly...ok...so what theological issue do we tackle today?
LG: About punching daddy in the mouth?
Momentary pause for rough housing........
BG: No, I mean what do we want to talk about today?
LG: You mean beating daddy up in the chest?
Momentary pause for rough housing........
BG: Ok, we need to get serious. Do you have anything to say?
LG: I don't have anything to say?
BG: Why don't we talk about God?
LG: We did that last time?
LG: How about what kind of video games we are going to have?
BG: I think video games are silly and aren't very interesting or productive
LG: I still want to talk about them.
LG: I like your ipod daddy.
LG: Tomorrow is the Johnny Appleseed festival. They have apple dumplings. Grandma and Grandpa might take me.
BG: wow that sounds like fun...not........

BG: Well, I think the magic is gone with this blog...I don't think we have it anymore...I wonder if we can ever recapture the brillance of our old conversations? Can we LG? Can we?

Hmmm, I would have liked to hear about the Johnny Appleseed Festival, Little Guy. Also, could you tell us a little about your move and if you're liking your new house?
