What is that smell??

Victory may not like that I'm blogging about this but I he knows its coming. :) I would have had pictures but he destroyed the evidence before I could get my camera.
Last night I made cookies, really yummy ones, and I put a batch in before I left for a visiting teaching appointment. I asked Victory to take them out in 10 minutes. I left in good faith that he would finish up with cookies while I was gone. I get home about an hour later and walk in the door and say, "Victory, what is that smell?" He tilts his head to the side a bit and sniffs, instantly it registered, "COOKIES!" The cookies were FRIED!! BLGHH! They were completly black all the way through and our poor house smelled HORRIBLE!
I was just amazed that he couldn't smell that overwhelming burnt smell. When I asked him why he couldn't smell it, he said, "I thought I smelled something but it just didn't register."

What a silly boy but I sure do love him!

After our cookie episode, Victory left to go play basketball. 15 minutes after the game started I got a phone call. I knew that couldn't be good. Turns out that he got elbowed in the mouth by his teammate and had to go get stitches. It was a 2 1/2 cm cut on the right side of his mouth. He'll be fine, he'll get the stitches out on Saturday. I feel kinda sorry for him, he was having kind of a rough night.

That sounds like something Jared would do :) I guess both of those things sound like something Jared would do. Hopefully Victory's wound heals nicely. I bet he was bummed he didn't get to play for long.

Okay, so your coworkers found out about Stephanie's baby before us?
What is up with that?

I'm genuinely suprised that Victory could ever forget about cookies. Hope you both are doing well.
