Literal Football Fever

Poor little Zeke has had a fever and has just not felt well since Tuesday. I took him to see the pediatrician and he got a shot of antibiotics- hopefully he'll feel better soon. Jack gave him a bath tonight and to help him feel better, he made up a delightful little song. Now I know where Anna Grace gets it. It's to the tune of "Camptown Races." It goes like this, "Football starts next Thursday... Doo-dah, Doo-dah, Football starts next Thursday... oh the doo-dah day." There are verses in which "maybe mommy will make a snack," and "daddy's going to drink a beer," are interjected. It made Zeke laugh. And me. I thought that blogging would be a good way for me to chronicle the funny little things that my children do, but I didn't really think about recording the musings of my husband. Jack and I often acknowledge the fact that God really made us for each other because I really think Jack's funny when maybe a lot of times other people wouldn't. For example, Jack is really into Tim Tebow right now. He's the University of Florida's quarterback and, more importantly, Jack's fantasy football QB. He is actually a really neat guy- this article is really worth the read, but I think Jack's words were that he chose Tebow because he loves Jesus, but also because he's "a machine". All that to say, Jack came home with a bunch of Tim Tebow jokes today like, "there are no disabled people... only people who run into Tim Tebow," and "Tim Tebow doesn't drink milk because if he did, his bones would be so strong that he would kill anyone he touched." Even now as I write it, it's not that funny, but it sure did crack Jack up. And I have to admit... it really amused me as well. Am I right? Did the Lord make a match or what? :)
