Little boys - part 2

On the weekend, we had visits from Grandma and Grandpa to the delight of the kids. That meant special dumplings (mandu) made especially for Devlin, and lots of extra attention showered on Ceilidh. On Saturday, we also had a surpise (albeit short) visit from Auntie Shunaha and Uncle Nowell.
Upon seeing the guests arriving, Ceilidh shouted with joy "it's Uncle Nowell!" and proceeded to dance a jig. Both kids accosted the two at the door and regaled them with tales of their week. Aisling also partook in the festivities by showing off her new dance.
While the adults tried to have a visit over coffee, Ceilidh asked Uncle Nowell to sit with her on the couch and watch a princess movie. He complied, and when he settled in next to her, she hugged him and stated, "I like you Uncle Nowell. You're so nice, and you're very handsome!"
Meanwhile, Devlin was not interested in a princess movie. Could he watch something else downstairs, he asked while lounging on the couch with his hands in the waistband of his pants, looking very much like Al Bundy.
"Yes, but why are your hands in your pants! That's not polite!"
"I'm only touching my legs! Not my underwear!" was the indignant reply.
