“Daddy…You Smell”
Last night I slept on the sofa.
It’s not because I don’t love my wife.
It’s not because we are not getting along.
I just had some ferocious gas.
So to the sofa I went with every intention not to place my wife in one more dutch oven.
It’s shouldn’t be fun while she is asleep but I do it to her anyways.

Around 1:15 am the 6 year old came downstairs.
“Daddy I love you”
It’s like she can sense exactly where I am in the house.
So she crawled up under my blanket and warmed my belly up.
Around 1:30 am the 5 year old came downstairs.
“Daddy…You smell”
And then she walked back upstairs and got in bed with Heather.
That’s it.
No, “Daddy I’m scared”.
No, “Daddy I’m thirsty”.
All I got was “Daddy…You smell.”
Confused and defeated, I spooned up as the back spoon with my 6 year old angel of a daughter and tried to figure out where I had gone wrong in raising the 5 year old.
Right as I was figuring it out…
The 6 year old farted on my belly, in her sleep.
I smiled…and fell asleep.
I love my life.
Los












Welcome to my world. My oldest is 14 so I have been farted on, peed on, pooped on and puked on by BOTH of my wonderful girls.

I'm sitting in St.Arbucks laughing out loud at my laptop while a larger than expected contingent of High Schoolers are looking at me like I've got three heads…
Funny
Love this – thanks for sharing!!
haha that's hilarious – my hubby does the same thing (putting me in a dutch oven) only he doesnt go sleep on the couch like he should!
thanks for brightening my day!
Just emailed my wife:
Awesome. We're not alone.
Except I wouldn't sleep on the sofa just because I'm venting a furnace. It's proof I have the fire in my belly.
What a great moment…
I appreciate you sharing it.
Awesome Los! Thanks for sharing…hilarious.
Are you making the insinuation that females can fart?
Awesome!
It doesn't get any better than that!
Again, thank you for another wonderful story!
thats freaking hilarious!
Classic!!

That is perfect… every daddy's dream (a girl who truly appreciates a good fart) – sounds just like my daughter
I LOVE IT!!!!!
As a dad of young kids myself, I not only loved your story but could identify completely….and my little 6 year old can clear a room when she does it! Thanks for sharing it!
I just never know what I'm gonna get on this here site!
Dutch Oven – that was a new one for me.
New term, that is… I'm fully aware of how it works!
Wow, this is stinkin HILARIOUS man!

What a beautiful moment!! =)

This is why I love your blog. Day to day, I just NEVER know what I am going to be reading…
Brilliant, i'm so glad you shared this
Dang! What'd y'all eat for dinner? LOL
CARLOS!!!!!
lol…dude, what'd you eat that gave you that kind of booster-rockets?!
is this really your mom!
this is going to have to be an addendum on my definition of "love"
Hilarious!
and that is Carlos being true to the mission statement of Rafamuffin Soul! Thanks for the authenticity, you remind us we are all simply human…..
brilliant. that was hilarious. it reminded me of my sister–when she was little she'd always fart when she laughed suddenly or in her sleep. your anecdote made me giggle out loud =)
it's sweet to see that you have some care for the well-being of your wife while she sleeps
How funny! My husband farts ALL the time (ok, maybe not all the time…I just notice it a lot). I wish he would take a page from your book and go sleep on the couch every once in a while so I'm not subjected to his gas and it's "lovely" aroma. Anyway….this story had me literally laughing out loud. Thanks for sharing.
In the words of my fiance's mother, "Oh, what a special gift."
Hilarious!
omg, thats hilarious! i love that! im sure being a father is great, can't wait to be one myself!
