Ooookaaaayyy.....

Kevin insisted he wanted a cactus for his birthday. I was not sure what a nine-year-old would want with a cactus, but hey, it's his birthday. It's a lot better than other things he could have asked for.

Already this morning, he has put his new CD player on the cactus, insisting after a moment "Hey! Let me hear that, cactus!"

He now has taken the monkeys out of he traveling Barrel of Monkeys game that [livejournal.com profile] sarahh gave him and is hanging them on the cactus. "It's like a Christmas tree!" (At least until I hear "Damn, that hurt.")

By the way, the cactus's name is Steve, because "that's a good name for a cactus."

Steve is a *great* name for a cactus. I'm still giggling over it, though.
