Today was "Take Your Child to Work Day," and while Emily got to spend a half-day with Daddy, experiencing the excitement of his work and sharing chocolate-chocolate-chip cookies with the office staff, I decided to share a bit of my childhood with Edward -- who isn't old enough to participate yet -- once we'd finished some schoolwork together.Long story short....
Awhile back, I discovered a DVD of "Tom & Jerry" cartoons. The cat-mouse duo were always my very favorite cartoon characters when I was younger. They never ceased to make me laugh at their antics -- one duping the other in their haste to catch/escape each other.
Well, they didn't disappoint today. Edward was in fits of laughter as Jerry flew his egg-carton airplane around and "bombed" Tom with light bulbs. And then Tom used Jerry as a golf tee. And then Killer replaced his regular set of teeth for a larger, pointier bonus set...and so on.
Both of us knew the cartoons were completely unrealistic...but that didn't take away from the fun of cuddling together, sharing something past and present.
