Quick handiwork
Wednesday, April 11, 2012 One evening during spring break, bored, waiting for the bathtub to fill up with warm water and bubbles.
"I have a message for you," he said. And flashed me his hand.
I laughed. He'd turned palm into smiley face, fingers into people. One wore a bottle-cap hat as they warred back and forth as far as his pinky could stretch.
"Now give me yours," he said.
He drew. And just as I was about to snap a photo of my smiling hand, he waved his in my face.
"OK, that's enough, Mommy. Now take a picture of my tattoo before it comes off all the way in the water."
And moments later, after he slid into the tub, covered his hair in shampoo bubbles and lined his Lego Clone Troopers along the ledge at attention, most of it was already gone.
