taking prisoners


I don't know where Dennis got his love and knowledge of the intricacies of police work. He really ambushed us tonight, grabbing my leg repeatedly to "take me to jail", but even I didn't get the treatment that poor Gran got! She was his prisoner many times (because she borrowed the dustpan and I didn't have it when I needed it). She was wearing imaginary handcuffs and taunting Officer Dennis just a bit when he told her she couldn't say those things because she was in handcuffs. For some unknown reason, she told him she could talk because he hadn't gagged her mouth. He then put a pretend gag on her, just as Uncle Denny mentioned duct tape. He was kidding, of course, but imagine Dennis' excitement when he found a roll of scotch tape. He actually taped her mouth. In this picture, he's taping (cuffing) her hands. She was a great sport about it, laughing through her bondage, and Dennis was so pleased with himself that his cheeks flushed bright pink in pure delight. I can't imagine when he's had a more willing playmate than Gran, so much so that he said he didn't want to come home tonight but wanted to go stay with her instead. Uncle Denny acted as police car and driver, shuttling Dennis around on his super cool electric wheelchair and making siren noises. Much fun was had by all.
