Irony

Today I had the pleasure of watching Nate. Nate is our two year old neighbor. He is very high energy and a pleasure to watch. And as any two year old he is also strong willed. A perfect fit for me. I took the opportunity to take some photos of him and Judah as you can see in my One shot for today. And as I made the mistake of not paying attention to him and Judah while I uploaded the photo's to the blog. I heard a crash and then Judah came running into the room "Nate broke it, Nate broke it and in his and he was holding two pieces that were once a beautiful black queen. As seen on the photo that I took the day before. It doesn't matter that she broke after all it is just a piece of soap stone. But I had been planning on taking this picture (see above) for a while now but 'never got to it.' So the irony of it all is that we have moved three times since we acquired this chess set. Moving is the perfect opportunity for a brittle stone to break. Yet after I finally get to taking a photo it breaks when it is knocked over for the, I don't know how many-est time.
