• It Was A Great Day...

  The celebrations of a 21 year old.

  He woke up as he would have to go to work, earlier than he wanted. 8 am is not a time he or I really like but we will do so for those we love and for a few extra dollars.

  He looked in the fridge and freezer and through the pantry, there was nothing he wanted for breakfast. Commenting he would like to have bacon and eggs I decided there and then that I would spend money on food for him for the day. He has so few days he eats what he wants because of not having the money to buy what he wants.

  So off we went, BigE, LilE and myself, WahE and MidE had already eaten breakfast and didn't want to go out to eat, to get him some bacon, eggs, pancakes with hash browns. After breakfast BigE reminded me that he wanted to go bowling for his birthday. We arrived at the house to find that MidE hadn't done any of his school work for the day and was actually behind in his work. With much sadness we left MidE at home and BigE, LilE, WahE and myself went to go bowling.

  We had so much fun, I must say, I have never done well at bowling. EVER. The wee little Eggos had fun through the first game but somewhere in the middle of the second game LilE decided he was done and hated bowling and pouted in the corner. This made BigE sad and start to not enjoy himself. So we left when the second game was done. (FYI I lost both games, 67 and 56 were my scores)

  We took BigE to The store to get himself set up with a new fishing rig, bate, and some other odds and ends. Got home, he opened his presents the kids had gotten him.

  After a while I had to run and get E and then got back. E went directly into his room. I took BigE and KND to the beach so BigE could use his surf rig he bought for his birthday and have a good end to a good day.

  I ran home got MidE ready to go back to his father's house and as I was getting home at 830pm BigE called saying he was really cold could I come pick him up and bring a few towels.

  Back  in the car I went, got BigE and home we went.

  As we were walking into the house I asked if he had a good day.

  Absolutely was his reply. He had a great day.

  Now I have a full fledged 21 year old. He has 2 jobs, and is working and saving so he can move somewhere he wants. I bless him with the best in life.
