what a bunch of thunderstorms this summer have done to oren

he came up with a new term. heartbreaking thunder. it’s when there is a really loud thunder and then you have your mouth open and it goes down your throat to your heart and your heart goes, “squish.” (he didn’t say squish exactly. he made a sound like your heart going “squish” though.)

typical brotherly conversation

seb: i’m going on the front porch. oren: let’s go on the backporch. it’s BETTER! (pretty sure that oren jumps up here with his fist in the air in some sort of gung-ho-type move) seb: i’m going on the front porch. oren: oh, oKAY! (fist gesture downwards)
