Down Daddy!

Yesterday morning the driveway was ICY. I went to take the trash down to the end of the driveway and chickened out halfway down, leaving it there until Jesse could take it on his way to work. As I watched from the door at the kitchen, he said, "I think it's all melted off now," and he wheeled it down. When he got to the end of the driveway where it slants to the street, he slipped and his feet flew right out from under him and he landed right on his butt. All I heard was an echoing "WoooHoo!!" from outside, and from inside I heard Sadie and Josie chanting, "Daddy is down! Daddy is down!" while Adelaide snickered at the kitchen table (she is not one to be left out of a joke). I said "Why are you laughing?" She said, "Funny! O-key? O-key!"
