Spaghetti noodle

Do you remember being a kid and learning that spaghetti noodles stick to the wall?  My son got that lesson tonight.  The cool thing was that I got to teach him.  We were just finishing up dinner and I threw a plain, sticky noodle at him.  I don't know what came over me.  A long day at work? Maybe?  He gave me the oddest look.  He knew that throwing food was wrong and that I'm always telling him to stop playing around at the table.  He was now learning the valuable lesson that sometimes you just have to let loose.  We spent the next 10 minutes throwing the noodle between Tim, Oliver and me, trying to stick it to each others faces.  Amelia even got caught in the crossfire.  All four of us were laughing.  Not just laughing, but full out belly laughs.  The ones that make you laugh, just because someone else is laughing so hard.  Who knew that one spaghetti noodle would be so entertaining and be a fun memory.  Another valuable lesson:  it's only okay to throw food if mom or dad instigates it.  And I mean it.
