I told you so !

As we whisked through the streets of Kuala Lumpur on our way to Sunway Lagoon Theme Park for the day, I looked lovingly at my sons. Wondering will they be young men on their return to Australia? Will they have compassion for others? Will the bonds of brotherhood be bound for life?

We arrived early, so we decided to show Cody the ice skating rink that is so popular at Sunway Plaza.

We oohed and aahed at the talented skaters and then as the time drew close to opening hour at the park, made our way toward the doors. As we scurried along the walkway my flatulating son grimaced. Then red faced announced that he'd tried to pass wind yet again. Seriously!  As I held back the desire to say "I told you so!" we dashed him to a nearby local toilet.

I often refer to him as number one son, due to the fact that he is slightly older. However due to his new found habit, I now think he should be called son number two.

In the words of Cody and Taiga, "This is a theme park", Sunway Lagoon Theme park is awesome! What a great way to spend a steamy day cooling off and having fun.

We'd made a pact early in the day to stay right up until closing time, 7pm.

It was nearing 3pm when the other son, was advised to settle down as he ran off to roll down a slide.

As we sat in the back of the Sunway Lagoon ambulance, being driven to the accident and emergency room at the local hospital, blood running down his chest and pooling in his belly-button, I held back the desire for the second time that day to say "I told you so!"

To put your mind at ease he is fine and the chin just needed gluing back together.

I held both my boys hands tightly, as we left the theme park two hours early. I looked lovingly to the son on my left with an inability to listen and fart and then lovingly to the son on my right with an inability to listen and roll.

My thoughts from the morning crept back, will they be compassionate? Will their bond be strengthened? Actually, now I'm just wondering if they'll survive!
