Payback. Sweet Payback.

The older that your kids get, the more that they participate in functions where it is all them and once they are on stage, you absolutely have no control.

It is what it is and they do what they will do.

And no matter how much you want to go up and pull them off the stage - twisting their ear along the way - you are just a spectator in it just like all of the other (hundreds) of people.

I give you one of those moments.



And another one of those moments.



Oh yeah. I have about ten other pictures of Shane doing the same thing. The first time I laughed. The second and subsequent ten times, I sank further and further down into my seat wishing that I had the proverbial shovel to dig myself a hole to crawl into and hide.

Well. It's not like it was the Spring Concert where all of the parents, grandparents and community was invited to watch.

Oh. Wait. Yes it was.

And, yes...mom. I hear you laughing and saying to yourself that this is sweet, sweet payback.

I was laughing and saying to myself- boy am I glad I wasn't there for that one. I would have been under the chair with you (or maybe on my way up to the stage to jerk a knot in his ear!!!
