For my entire life, I've always been prone to respiratory infections and would catch everything that the children brought home. But since my green tea and honey ritual, my immune system is as strong as Chuck Norris.
Why Chuck Norris?
Because Charlie and one of his colleagues have this ongoing discourse of jokes about Chuck Norris. Each day they try to out-Chuck-Norris each other. It's totally juvenile and hilarious. I've learned that there are entire website (s) devoted to Chuck Norris jokes and Charlie now has most of them committed to memory. Here are a few that I can remember:
Chuck Norris can ride a motor. Without the cycle.
When Chuck Norris does push-ups, he doesn't push himself up - he pushes the earth down.
Chuck Norris will never have a heart attack, because his heart isn't fool enough to attack him.
When Chuck Norris was born, the doctor cried. Never - ever - slap Chuck Norris.
All this to say, green tea and honey is tough stuff. And best of all, a few of my children enjoy drinking it, too … it's truly a highlight of our day sitting down with each other over a cup of tea.
Moments after I took this picture, William said to me, "Mom, did you know that Chuck Norris was born in a log cabin … that he built with his bare hands?"
So not only are my habits rubbing off on the children, it would appear Charlie's are, too!
