OFFICER BOMBOY IS ON DUTY

First and foremost, I must say a big thanks to everyone who took the time to send their condolences on the passing of my relative. I thank you for your kind words, wishes and prayers. I thank God for the life my cousin had and simply pray that God will give strength to his mother who is struggling with her loss.

That being said, this week has been full of the normal events and activities from the kids. However, Bomboy is beginning to exhibit a trait hitherto unnoticed. The guy is EXTRA POSSESSIVE. It seems as if I am his property. And, he makes sure to let a certain person know it.

All week, Bomboy has been 'blocking' his father's access to me. My husband cannot come near me for a hug, talk-less of a kiss when Bomboy is around. If he dares, Bomboy swings into action. Crawling at breakneck speed to prevent his father from getting too comfortable with me.

Case in point, on Saturday afternoon, Husband took the family out for lunch. When we returned from our outing, the entire family got into our bed and cuddled. The kids were excited to be in "mommy and daddy's bed" and Husband and I were happy to share a moment (even if it was under the watchful gaze of Officer Bomboy). Well, Husband decided to snuggle up closer and give me a kiss. As our faces creeped closer to each other, I heard a loud wail. "Naaaaaah!!!!" Before I could register what was going on, Bomboy was right smack in between the two of us. He took his arm and pushed his father's head away from mine! I just started laughing.

Husband did not understand what was going on, so he moved Bomboy away and this time tried to put his arm around my waist. Hahahaha, bad move on his part. Bomboy appeared again and lifted his father's arm, which probably weighs as much as the child. Bomboy removed the arm from my waist and scuttled his way in between the two of us, again.

At this point, Husband's patience was becoming limited and he said, "You this boy, you have had my wife's breast in your possession for months now. All I want to do is cuddle with my woman and you are trying to prevent my access. Ah, no way!" Husband picked the baby up, and put him on the floor, knowing that the child is not old enough to climb unto the bed!

Na which kine wickedness be that? I shouted at Husband for being so petty and promptly picked up my dimpled little baby who was wailing so fiercely that it broke my heart. lol! I got back into bed, and put Bomboy in between Husband and I. Then I put my arms around my hubby and gave him a nice kiss. The blissful moment between the two of us, lasted about 10 seconds because TE and TK realized that their parents were relaxed and decided to put an end to that.

Ah, the life of a married woman! No private time, ever!


PS: I forgot to mention that TK is adding to his vocabulary. He says "Pele" instead of "sorry" and now enjoys greeting everyone with a sweet "Bonzourrrr" (Bonjour) in the morning. lol!
