Yesterday, D. wanted to go to the park. I told him to go get his Crocs, but he ignored me till about 5 p.m. Suddenly, there he was, pointing to his Crocs and saying, "Hooray!" So off we went.
DevilChild was there. A skateboard was off to the side, and D. saw it and went for a closer look. Of course, DevilChild leapt into action and sat down on it, telling D. firmly, "No, D!"
"Can I have a turn?" D. asked, and DevilChild replied that he most certainly could not.
"Come away, D.," I said from a few feet away, and then ChabadMom said, "That's not DevilChild's skateboard. It's ours, and D. is certainly welcome to use it."
"DevilChild never lets D. use anything in the park," I said.
"DevilChild needs to get over himself," said my new best friend.
D. had, in the meantime, wandered a few feet away to the water fountain and took a long, healthy drink. Then he returned to DevilChild and spit the water in a beautiful arc all over him.
"Give me five, D!" I said, high-fiving him and laughing.
"HE SPIT ON ME," said DevilChild.
"Because you're MEAN!" I said back, and my kid and I laughed as we walked away.
