A daily journal of a mom's thoughts and experiences while on board the "Mommy Coaster."
1. Bobbing for What?

My son still likes the game, bobbing for apples. He gets his friends together, and they go outside to do it. It doesn't matter if it's Halloween, Valentines Day, or an average day. The other day, which was an average day, he decided fill up the pail and have a go at it.


He pulled out something from the refrigerator, filled the bucket with water, and went outside with his friends.


When he and his friends came back in the house, they were soaked.


"What did you do?" I asked. "Soak your entire head?"


My son grinned. "Those apples were kind of hard to get. They didn't bob so well."


I narrowed my eyes and went outside to see exactly what he was talking about.


I shook my head when I pulled out what was in the bucket.


I held up the thing. "Dude, what do you think this is?"


"An apple?"


"No, Dude. It's a plum."
