Monkey in a Tree

 

 

 

 

Brodey in the backyard pine.

Last Thursday we were sitting in the living room, Becky and I, and we could hear Tate and Riley laughing their butts off looking out in the backyard and yelling "Higher Brodey! Higher!"  We got up thinking "This can not be good", and went to see what all the commotion was about.  Out in the backyard we see Brodey about fifteen feet up in the pine tree.  He did not seem scared and was climbing all over it.  I didn't think he was in any immediate danger and so I ran to find the camera to get a shot of him in the tree.  Becky yelled out to him to make sure he was okay and the following conversation ensued:

Becky: "Brodey are you ok?"

Brodey: "Uh?"

Becky: "Can you get down?"

Brodey: "Uh?"

Becky: "Are you stuck?"

Brodey: "Not that much."

I think that last line had me laughing for the next three days.  Man that kid has some funny moments from time to time.  Anyway, he climbed around the tree a few more minutes, shot his mother a thumbs up and a smile and then climbed down and out.  He is definitely our wild card around here.  He keeps us all on our toes.
