3:10 p.m.
Husband emails this picture to kids and me. Subject line reads:
Azaleas in Front of House
3:37 p.m.–Daughter responds:
Over or under two years before Mom murders them?
3:38 p.m.–Son pipes in:
Under. For sure.
3:39 p.m.–Husband joins the harassment:
Over. Mom’s only allowed to look.
4:01 p.m.–I think to myself:
I’m too good a person to participate in this conversation. I think I’ll just calmly burn those Azalea bushes down to a crisp.
