All Pro Dads

Full disclosure, I did not want to go to All Pro Dads yesterday.

It’s before school and I never want to get out of bed.

It was raining.

And you know – all the people I am usually trying to avoid. 🤣

But y’all wanted to go and I’m glad we went.

They served breakfast and talked about gratitude.

The curriculum was interactive between parents and children, so we were constantly asking each other questions and doing activities together.

At one point, us parents were asked to tell our children five things we were proud of them for.

Y’all just beamed when I did.

Maybe we’ll go again next month?

I love you.

Morning Homework

K, you did some morning homework a few weeks ago and I forgot to document it.

See, you had a respiratory infection and the doctor had you on antibiotics and some steroids.

The steroids are a necessary evil – but I don’t love y’all taking them.

Why?

It gives you an insatiable appetite and makes it nearly impossible to sleep well (roid rage and all).

All that to say, you are 8 years old, and with steroids giving you a boost of extra energy, you woke up at 4 AM.

What did you do? Watch TV? Play Legos?

You got out your math packet (not due for a week) and finished it alone in the dark morning hours…

I mean, 🤣.

Seriously though, I am so proud of how you are doing in school.

You get your work done without being prodded, and you get nearly a 100 on everything you touch.

Point and case?

The last report card you got – you had a grade of 94 in P.E. – and it was your lowest grade!

I love you.

K Show

K, you’re home sick today.

You have been coughing for over a week and woke up this AM with a fever.

The thing is, since I am not working from home four days a week now, I get to stay with you!

But guess what?

Mom took a sick day to stay with you too! 🤣

You and mom just left for the doctor and I am trying to get some writing done.

But it’s basically the K show today.

Let’s be silly if you feel up to it.

I love you.
