...4 days and a wake-up...

When we got home, Timmy was pretty energetic. So we walked the 63 terraced steps down to the church, then on down the hill to the playground. Timmy played on the slide and swing. There were several kids there with their parents. A little boy there kept trying to hurt Timmy everytime he came near him - by stepping on him while he was climbing. Both times, the boy looked down - with plenty of space to go around - and stepped on him as he passed (once on the leg and one on the hand). He was out of reach and spoke German - as did the parents, who were too far away to see anything. So, we just left. He was probably acting out on jealousy because Timmy is so much cuter than him.
Then we did Timmy's favorite in-the-house activities: "baff" and "teef."

That gets me so mad... Unfortunately due to language barriers that is much harder to deal with then around here...

Unfortunately, Tim will have to deal with jealously all his life. The bane of being so darn cute and smart. Since stepping on the kid yourself probably wasn’t an option, leaving the park was the right move.
