Overdramatic much?

 "Herma! Herma!"

 My younger yelled at the top of his lungs running to me at full speed.


I was worried. What on earth could be wrong?


"The water filter needs to be changed." He said.


This was a problem of epic proportions. 

If the filter was bad, then that meant that dirt came out of the taps with regular water. Simply put, the water was impure.


My brother was panicking. I was panicking.




Hold on a moment.

How did he know the water was impure now?


I asked him as much and he showed me a sieve.






It had a speck of dirt the size of my fingernail.


I panicked for dirt the size of a fingernail???


They say don't blame the messenger


I guess there are exceptions to every rule.

The Copy Machine

  A big thank you to the lady who told me this story. She gave me a new view on babies thanks to an intriguing conversation. My little brother reached the stage that he copied everything that everyone said. As a result we were really, really, really careful. We once said poop in his presence and that comprised the majority of his vocabulary for one week! Back to the story. My mom always carried my brother with her to greet my dad whenever he came home from work. She always said "Welcome home honey" One day, as my dad came home, my brother broke free from my sister and I and ran up to our dad yelling "Honey! Honey! Honey!" at the top of his lungs. We were shocked. My mom was worried. My dad look faintly disturbed. How were we going to wean him off this?

The Sleepover Story

  'Mom, dad, can I sleepover at my friend's house next week?' 'Sleep-what? You can be with them all day, why do you need to sleep in their house? Why can't they come here?...' A lot more questions follow that. From the experience of teens, more often than not, parents believe that you should play out all day and come back to your house to sleep. It's not a bad philosophy.  You don't really lose out of not sleeping over at your friend's house. A huge pro is, when you are older, hopefully, you'll sleep in your own house most of the time, which is a great way to remain safe.
