Another Wednesday night
I pick Jack up, and he is ready to go, telling me about who got in trouble at school, and the fine sport of cup stacking. I decide to start on the Christmas list while riding home. After a little coaching…he wants a Wii. I think Santa can handle that.
Jack has a bunch of homework…but we have fun doing it. He is working on a report about the Navajo…did you know they lived in “hogans”? Any way, I love doing homework with Jack. It’s something my folks really didn’t do…that I remember…and my grades in high school reflected that. I had great test grades, but no homework to speak of. I want to make sure Jack and Tony don’t fall into that trap.
Jack’s favorite place to eat on Wednesdays? Chick-Fil-A…cause they have a play ground. So off we go…after a wrestling match over the Whoppie Cushion.
Side note, every child needs a whoppie cushion! Get one that has a foam insert so it re inflates by itself. You can also use it for a training device for your pets. They hate them. One good squeeze to the face and they are gone.
So after dinner, the three of us head north to his other home. After the hand off, and discussion about homework and sports, my bride and I head home.
Wednesday’s are great…and then kinda sucky. It’s hard to watch him grow up every wednesday afternoon and every other weekend.
