The first thing you have to know is that Eric has this "thing" with the kids called "Kissy, kissy, kiss kiss." It's where he, like a predator comes up and says "uh oh! Do you know time it is? It's time for kissy.... kissy.... kiss kiss kiss kiss" which is followed by kisses all over their face and neck. It never fails to get them giggling and shrieking. This has been a "thing" for at least a few years now. It ALWAYs is a way to get Aron in a good mood. He loves affection.
The second thing you have to know is that Aron and Jordan read every night to one of us. It's their homework. Often they read from little copied books that they bring home. One that they've had for a couple months is entitled "Slap Hello!" It tells of different ways people say hello. The cover has two soccer players giving a hi-five.
Aron decided to read this book to Eric last night. Throughout the book Aron and Eric would act out the various ways they say "hello" in the book. If they describe friends giving a hi-five, Aron and Eric would hi-five.
Aron reads" The pals will not hug and kiss. But they will shake hands." Eric and Aron shook hands.
Finally Aron turned the page and read aloud "Kiss, kiss ki..." and without missing a beat he said "Oh crap" and Eric would have done his kissy.... kissy... but Aron's response was just too much and HE dissolved into laughter for about 5 minutes.
It was priceless, and just one of the many things that make 7 year olds endearing.
