"Yeah, buddy."
"I'm a lot stronger than I thought."
"Of course you're strong, honey," I said supportively. "Look at all the exercise you get in Tae Kwon Do and basketball!"
"Yeah, well, I didn't know I could do this," he said, clearly in awe of himself.
"What is it?" I yelled down, hoping he wasn't playing with my hand weights again. "Are you being careful?"
"I'm being careful now," he replied ominously. Long pause, then: "You better come see."
Halfway down the stairs,<------ I saw this.
"Oh. My. God. What happened?"
"All I did was slide down the stair rail on my stomach like I always do, and I hit the wall with just my butt. I can't believe how strong I am!" he said proudly.
Strong? Maybe.
One-hundred-and-thirty pounds of solid teenager? Most definitely.

HAHAHAHA! We have a similar imprint on the wall from Jonathan. He was jumping on the bed and fell off.
My brother did this with his head when we were kids.
Good times.
Your brother told us his "friend" put that hole in our staircase wall, when he was Taz's age. At least Taz owned up to his feat.
Lynnie - I remember that "friend" of my brother's. I think his name was Half Barrel.
I LOVE how he approached telling you about it!
As the mother of two sons, I'm weeping for my future drywall.
Elmer's gonna like this one.
Thanks for my laugh for the day!!
I'm still processing the fact that Taz slides down the stair rail on his stomach...I have a vague memory of sliding down a stair rail as a kid, but I don't think it was head first!
Now that boy knows how to reframe.
Saw this, thought of taz :-P
