Swiper the sneaky fox... he stole my kidney!


As long as Keira has been fascinated with Dora the Explorer, she has had a love-hate relationship with Swiper the Fox. Swiper (as many of you parents know) is the bad guy on the show. He shows up at different times of each episode to swipe (or steal) key objects in the story. The only way he can be stopped is for Dora (and your child) to yell out "Swiper No Swiping!" three times in a row. That usually does the trick and the fox runs away. Well sometimes Keira has been so afraid of him that she will hide under a pillow or blanket until he goes away on the television. Other times she likes him and tells Christie and I things like "there's swiper Momma" and wants her stuffed Swiper to play with. Well one day while she was watching the show I told Keira "Yes I don't like Swiper either, he stole my kidney, I woke up in a bathtub full of ice and my kidney was gone!". I don't think I have ever seen a more blank, confused look on her face in my life. Christie was floored that I would say such a thing and now Keira tells people when she has the opportunity "Swiper took my Daddy's kidney!". If they made you take a test before becoming a Dad I wonder how I would score... :)
