Lewies Blog

I arrived at home after work on Friday and my niece and nephew were already there with my mother in-law. She just stood there for a few moments looking at me and then asked who I was. “I’m your Uncle Lewie”, I said. “Your’re not Uncle Lewie!”, she exlaimed. I explained to her that this was my secret identity and that I would go and change into Uncle Lewie.

I went to my room and changed into my regular clothes. Sure enough, I come out of my bedroom to see a little girl running stait at me to give me a big hug. “Uncle Lewie!”, she yelled with delight as she crashed into my legs.

Today she was trying to ride on me like a tiger and I just wasn’t up for it. She would crawl all over me. “Get up!”. “No, I’m tired”, I said. “Tigers lay down all day, you can’t ride a tiger”. Still she continued to pounce on me and jump up and down. “Why won’t you get up?” My wife and mother in-law just giggled and watched as I continued to come up with funny excuses.

She then tried to give me juice. The other day I was playing airplane with her but my back got tired and I told her that I ran out of juice. So for now on, she offers me her juice any time that I say that I’m tired.

You gotta love the little ones.
