Sean's Gas Regulators

As all hell breaks loose around me this evening (Daddy at work tonight and the three of them are all at each other; Sky is trying to study, Evie is ripping his notes, Sean is irritating everyone, and Evie also has a suspicious smell coming from her hind section), I add a drawing of Sean's latest obsession, GAS REGULATORS.

The drawing is quite detailled and I'm sorry it presents so small here.  He lives and loves and breathes (well not literally thank God) natural gas regulators these days.  He muses about all the houses we pass by in the car...do they have gas furnaces or gas stoves, and thereby a regulator too? 

What do you think about that house Mom?  I don't know.  What about that one there?  I don't know.  (I don't care).  Does that house have radiators or vents?  I don't know.  Well what do you think it has?  I don't know, maybe vents.  No, I don't think there's vents because there's no chimney.  (Or something like that). 

So go our conversations some days.  Tonight he regalled me with gas regulator tales for about 1/2 hour straight, while I was doing dishes and tidying the kitchen.  One sort of learns how to stream it through and mull about what will be for dinner tomorrow night, at the same time as all of this natural gas info comes at one.   It's tedious, and nice when I can sway him off on another topic, but I'm not always successful.  He is Mr. Focus when he wants to be...mostly when I don't want him to be!

Well the mayhem has died down somewhat, since Skyler took disciplinary measures into his hands.  His latest form of punishment is to lie on top of Sean and keep him immobile, while singing the "Let us pray to the Lord" song from church in his ear.  For some reason that drives Sean crazy, not that Skyler's singing is anything to be joyous about, rather would make one want to pray to the Lord quite desperately I would think.

Evie is smelling better now that I've changed her, Skyler is finished singing, and Sean is back bouncing on his exercise ball.  All is well and I only need to get some treadmill time in before bed.

Needle night (B-12 shot) for Sean I think.
