Chinese, Super Hero Camp and Barnes & Noble





Darren left town for guess what? how did you know. Yes, hunting. More than a few people have asked me what he is hunting. I told them that that was a good question, maybe, pigs, beer or moose? I don't know what you shoot in March. That leads me to what the kids and I have been doing.

Tonight we were suppose to go to the Pancake Man and Jack's school but he decided that he did not want to go so we went to Hy-Vee and ate Chinese instead. The guy at the Chinese counter gave Jack and Will all you can eat plates and expected to see them back up a few times. They took one look at their plates and said, "mom, I can't eat all of this!" They were piled high. It was funny.
We then dropped Will off at "Super Hero Camp" and he was excited. They made masks and then set off to do some leaping and flying.

While Will was doing that, I promised jack we could go to Barnes and Noble to use his gift certificate from Christmas. While he was in deep contemplation, I read Hannah 3 books. After about 70 minutes, he found a book that he was happy with.
We then went back to pick up Will. When we were leaving he said "mom, most of the others moms went into this room and had their nails and toes painted. You should have done that so you wouldn't have to work so hard." Have I mentioned how much I love this kid? He is so thoughtful and really thinks I do a lot for everyone. He thought i deserved to have my nails painted! When I put him to bed, I told him how proud I was of him for going to the camp, making new friends by himself and being such a great little boy.

In case you were wondering about Max, this was him right after his warm bath. It was past his bedtime and he smiled as I layed him down. I am so lucky!
( Due to the rip in the mask, I will be helping Will create a new one tomorrow! He told me he would lose his powers without one!)
