Charlie drew a picture of a boat the other day.
I don’t think I’m going to be riding in any boats that looks like this.

This is my Journey, but you can watch.

I just discovered a blog that’s linking to monkeyjack.com.
I clicked over to check out the post and sure enough I found the link.
“http://www.monkeyjack.com/images/blog/9-28-05-lottery-ticket.gif”
They ONLY linked to the scanned image of *MY* Lottery ticket. The lottery ticket that *I* paid $3.00 for! That post cost me $3.00, and now… it’s been stolen by another.
I feel used, I feel dirty. I feel kinda warm inside too.
Cheers softloungeblog dude! Enjoy the ticket. It didn’t do anything for me.
Yeah… I said damnit while I was on the phone with someone tonight. Charlie was right beside me, and after hanging up I heard:
“Dad, why’d you say damnit?”
“Uh…I’m sorry buddy, that’s a bad word and I shouldn’t have said it.”
“That’s OK Dad.” said in the most innocent tone ever.
It’s great to be forgiven by your 5-year old.
My boy was given his first homework assignment this week.
The note attached to the assignment read:
“I’m having trouble getting Charlie to focus on his paperwork. He needs to complete the paper and return it so I can see it. Thanks.”
We asked the teacher about it and it turns out he ran out of time because he was staring into space, day-dreaming. His teacher said he was sooo intent that they were wondering what in the world was going through his brain, but they didn’t ask.
Tonight, we sat him down with his paper and explained that since he couldn’t focus at school he needed to do his assignment at home.
As he was coloring, I was reading off the names of the crayon colors to him. Forest Green, Lime Green, Green, Yellow, and than Sepia. When I said Sepia. Lori commented, “Are you sure you’re not reading the spanish names? ha ha.”
Charlie replied, “There are no Spanish names on these crayons Mom. There are only Spanish names on crayons in Spanish-World. Spanish-World is far far way. It’s in Texas-fornia.”
long pause.
“You know what? There are no bad guys in Texas-fornia either.”
I have no doubt he was day-dreaming in class.
