Kodiak and his death wish

Once upon a time there lived a little boy named Kodiak. He was a cute little boy who liked to laugh, get into mischief, and scare the crap out of his parents. He had had several close calls like falling over the banister and landing at the bottom of the stairs, falling of a stool onto a slate floor, etc, etc. He never got hurt too bad just a few bumps and bruises.
One day Kodiak, his brother Kalsin, and his father Michael were outside playing in the dirt in the backyard. His mom had just left to go to a baby shower. After she left, Kodiak decided he needed to escape from the backyard and run down the street to find some cars. One of the neighbors saw him and yelled " Grab that little boy!", just as car tires were screeching and horns were honking. Michael was running down the street with little Kalsin following at his heels, trying to get to Kodiak. Now Kodiak, unfazed, smiling and happy and safe (thanks to the neighbor) had once again managed to escape the fate of death and scare the crap out his parents.
The End

Update

I know I said before I would keep this updated but we've been a little busy in the Washburn household. We have been painting and trying to get all of our other little house projects done, like putting baseboards up, patching holes in the walls, cleaning up the backyard, and one of these days we'll start working on finishing the basement. Hopefully we can get it fixed up enough to sale. I've also started potty training, again! I think Kalsin will be the easiest to train. He seems more interested and willing to cooperate with it. Kodiak on the other hand is a little stubborn. He'll get mad if you take him away from whatever he was doing and especially if you take his cars away. I'll just have to have a little more patience with him. People have told me to put Cheerios in the toilet and have them try to pee on them, but I don't see that working too well for me seeing as how they love Cheerios and Kalsin has no problem drinking toilet water! I'm sure Kodiak wouldn't either if there are Cheerios involved. Silly boys!
