"I know you think that's flatter than I would not want you listen to the TV until 2 am, but believe me that tomorrow when you go do your math test, you'll greatly appreciate that your old mother sends you to bed earlier than you want. "" Yes, yes, it's true that it's not fun having to empty the litter box in your rabbit. It is true that it's gross. But tonight, when you lie, you will appreciate it feels good in your room. "In short, every ugly thing that shows up in their lives, I tell them that there will always, always something positive that sooner or later will point to compensate.
It happened again recently. Filou was not invited to the birthday party of his sister's girlfriend Maxim. Because she promised this little boom: supper restaurant and dip in Lake Brompton moonlight. Then, sleep with the girlfriend and breakfast waffles buried under a ton of fruit, maple syrup and custard. Even I was a little fru not having been invited to this fiesta.
Anyway. Still, my Filou crying because they had not received any invitation card to his name. She was inconsolable. Worse it was not my mom's words with his psycho candy tiring five pennies that would bring him a smile in the face.
It's two days later that his Chiclets reappeared on her dentures. "Trickster, you know when mom tells you that there's always something fun happens after something flat, do you believe me?"
She looks at me with a look of teen whose mother hit him royally on the nerves and has only one desire: that the mother gives birth to its point quickly so she can go to chat on MSN with the entire universe while emptying the fridge.
"Well today I had a phone that should make you forget that you're not invited to the party in Florence."
Quietly, his air relented. I guess she was afraid to attend a course in psychology when she did not want going to listen to Hannah Montana.
"Imagine, then, that Louis-Philippe (a family friend) bought tickets for the Canadiens and that its tickets are in the family area"
From that moment, sparks appeared in his eyes. A smile took shape on his lips. She waited, nervously, the end of my sentence.
"And when you buy tickets in this area is necessarily an adult ticket and a ticket for a child under 16 years, Louis-Philippe did not know And as Louis-Philippe did not child, he thought to bring you with him. What do you say? "
you imagine his reaction? Well, it was ten times worse! She screamed with joy. She, on the Canadian? The game where everybody wants to go! The dream! My youngest pinched everywhere to make sure she was not dreaming. She made me repeat the least 14 times in history. She made me swear on the head of his father that I did not play his turn. "But Mom, I will not be able to sleep tonight!"
Indeed, the chick has had trouble getting to sleep that night. And even the return of the Bell Centre after the win 5 to 1 of CH at the expense of the Flyers.
An unforgettable evening that beats many dinners at the brewery and dip in a lake.
"And Mom, now I'll always believe you when you go tell me things." Thank
Louis-Philippe. I owe you one.
