What’s round and hard and hairy all over?

March 21, 2008 – 5:44 pm

Over dinner…

CJ: (leans over and whispers to me) Mommy, call daddy a coconut.

Me: Jay, you’re a coconut.

CJ: Ha! (crosses his arms in smug satisfaction) How do you feel, daddy?

Jay: Mmm… I feel… sort of round and hard and… hairy.

(I raise an eyebrow at him across the table)

CJ: You mean you feel SAD?

Jay: NO… I feel like a coconut.

CJ: You ARE a coconut.

Jay: Right.

Yes it’s true, I got my H back. For which I’m eternally thankful, because this post just wouldn’t have been the same if I had to write *ard and *airy, now would it? Gotta love that H!

    WHEW! Because you were starting to sound all fake-cockney like Dick VanDyke in Mary Poppins.

    I’m so relieved. Hardly slept a wink last night fretting about your life without an ‘h.’ It will truly be a Happy Easter now.

    You definitely cannot underestimate the importance of the letter h.

    Dinner at your house sounds fun!

    T and H stopped working for me earlier…ODD.
    I’m never going to be able to look at a coconut the same.

    Have that Danny Kaye song in me’ head while reading this…
    ‘I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts, here they are standing in a row…
    Big ones, small ones, some as big as your ‘ead…’
