What does it say about the world we live in when I must clarify that my sweet C's latest obsession with military planes, tactical maneuvers, and all things related to the History Channel's Dog Fights show are in no way related to the heartless, selfish, greedy world of the recently publicized dog fights involving animals?!?! He's just a nine-year-old little boy who inherited his Paw Paw's love of the military!
For example, when we were at the museum and he spied the aircraft carrier and war planes on exhibit and loudly declared, "Look Mama, dog fights! I LOVE dogfights!" heads spun around faster than the propellers on a plane in flight! Seriously! So I did what any other self-respecting mother would do. I used one hand to point in the direction of the plane display, and I used my other hand to cover my face as I shook my head in disbelief!
I then stood there and listened patiently as he gave me the step-by-step, part-by-part, maneuver-by-maneuver explanation of what surely would have made any airplane historian or military tactical analyst proud! And to be honest, for once in my life, I was thankful that my little C was broadcasting all of his knowledge to the top of his excited little lungs!
