Well snuggle time tonight quickly diverged. Patrick, as usual, could not resist the urge to bite Howie's neck, which not surprisingly, he does not like. The picture to the left looks like I am choking an orange, defenseless kitten, but in actuality, I'm trying to intervene in a teeth-to-neck situation. It's hard to get angry at Patrick though because I've realized he's not doing it maliciously, he's just one of those kids who's really into Twilight right now. These other pictures show him succeeding in his desire to practice his vampire skills on his older brother.
I'm fairly certain this Twilight thing is just a phase, and the neck biting will stop. About a year ago, Howie himself was quite obsessed with Harry Potter to the point that he was actually aspiring to be Dumbledore when he grew up. It was a difficult conversation to explain to him that wizards don't really exist, and that's when we started looking into more practical professions. However, I do get the sense that deep down, Howie still believes he can be a Gryffindor someday.
Well, that's it for tonight. As always, the guys send their best!
Note. You can see Howie's snaggletooth if you look closely.
