The boy turned 7 today. So nearly a Halloween baby but oh well.
It seems everyone decided to give him money this year and he made out like a complete bandit. $150 in cash! WTF?!?! Plus he put together a Lego car set he was given and has been Lego Batmanning it on the Xbox for the last couple of hours - pausing only to come in and pretend to hug me while he watches a walkthrough on youtube when he gets stuck.
On Sunday he gets a dinosaur party at the local museum. Man, it's good to be a kid these days!
Back in my day, we were lucky if we were given dirt and not beaten that day! And we were
grateful!
