Earlier in the fall, my sister dropped by with my youngest nephews, and he demonstrated one of the dance techniques he's been working on...The Sprinkler.
I had a chance to catch up with my youngest nephew and ask him a few questions about his moves....
Midnight Toker: So, how did you learn to dance like that?
Youngest Nephew: Good question, and thanks for asking. When I was about 13 months old, I found an old record in the garage. It was a novelty album put out in the 80's by the WWF, the wrestling organization...or should I say WWE, since they were forced to change their name after a law suit, but I digress...The 1st song on the album is Land of a Thousand Dances, and it features all sorts of dances. I was curious about them, so I looked them up online. My whole life I had been looking for a purpose, and from the moment I researched all the different ways you can dance, I was hooked. I knew I'd be dancing the rest of my life.
Midnight Toker: Wow, that is quite a story, and an inspiring one. I hope other toddlers listen to what you have to say and let your words inspire them.
Youngest Nephew: I hope so too. If I can inspire just one little one to take up dancing, it'll all be worth while.
Midnight Toker: Do you mind if I ask you a personal question?
Youngest Nephew: No. Go ahead, shoot.
Midnight Toker: Now, please be honest, did you poop your diaper?
Youngest Nephew: Yeah, so what, I haven't even started potty training yet.
Midnight Toker: OK, good to see you, little guy...Where's your mommy?...
