But this post really isn't about his weekend of luxury, or the fact that I didn't get to go, but rather spent the weekend tending to a very sick little girl while not feeling so hot myself. Yes, I am harboring some resentment. Anyway, this post is about what happened while Brian was retelling to me some of the events of his getaway. Here's how it went:
I was laying in bed Sunday morning while Brian was ironing church clothes and he began telling me about his trip. At one point Ashlyn had made her way into our bed to cuddle up next to me, as she often does in the mornings. Brian continued his story-telling, not really thinking that Ashlyn was paying any attention. And then he stated, "Oh, and I saw a naked man this weekend."
This immediately sparked some interest in Ashlyn. She was all ears. Brian then started telling me about the layout of the hotel, leading up to how he saw said naked man. Ashlyn didn't like this shift in the conversation and pretty soon she piped in with, "Daddy. Wait. Pause the story. Where was the naked man?"
After a good laugh, Brian continued on with the story. Most of the rooms face the ocean and as Brian and a fellow co-worker were walking along the path leading down to the beach, Brian noticed that several doors were open. As he passed the first door, he looked and saw a cleaning crew. The second door, nothing. But lo and behold, standing in the doorway of the third open door, a naked man. Completely nude. Facing the ocean with his hands on his hips.
Ashlyn: So, where was the naked man?
Followed by: I wish I could see a naked man.
And then: What room was he in?
So, if you see Ashlyn and she tells you that her daddy saw a naked man, or that she wishes she could see a naked man, you'll know why.

Hysterical! Kids are soo funny...they always pick up on the things we want them to notice the least, don't they?! This story cracks me up. :)
hahaha! too funny!
I wish I could see a naked man too....
LOLOL... Oh my gosh. She is one funny girl. Sounds like she is just as curious as my little one. You'd better watch out. Haha.
She's a riot -that girl. Don't you wish you could post this sign on her whenever she tells someone about the "naked man?" It would help explain a lot.
I still think you should have gone girl! I'da tended your kids - sick or not. That's a beautiful place to go!
Oh, I love that story. It will never get old. It will be told for many years to come.
