Why This Blog Has the Name it Does...

C fell off his bike and scraped up his knee pretty good yesterday. (So nice to be having shorts weather.)

This morning, getting ready for school, there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth as we cleaned things up and put on new bandaids.

"WHY does this have to happen???"

"Well, C, you've seen that bumper sticker right?"

"What bumper sticker?"

"The one that says 'shit happens.'"

Long pause.

"Well, Dad did say that I was nine now and it was about time I had a good knee scrape."
