We got out some of our records – mainly bubblegum stuff – for Noel to look at. This took some courage. See, Noel still likes to tear things. He knows exactly what he’s doing. He usually looks up innocently and proclaims, “break it!” Adorable. Adorable only goes so far. These are our records. (Please, now is not the time for a lesson on priorities…) I can deal with a torn Elmo book. I can even deal with a decapitated Elmo doll…hmmmm…anyway, I can not deal with the willful violation of an innocent Partridge Family LP. They have to learn sometime, right?
All in all, he did a good job and showed some restraint. If he shows positive progress, we shall move on to the Archies. Or perhaps the Banana Splits. I think the Brady Bunch is a ways away, though. Let’s not even think about the Bugaloos record…
