241/365


We started a new tradition this year. On the kids birthday, we decided to have a fun special night out just with them and mom and dad.  Its up the the birthday boy/girl to decide what fun thing we will do.

Well that was supposed to be the plan.

Tonight I got cut from the team.

Kaden chose to go camping with dad.  What?? Seriously?? And to top it off, he told me, "Mom, you could go if you didn't have other things to do" (like watch the other kids?)

hmmmmmm.

The truth is, I can't imagine anyone else I'd rather Kaden have one on one time with than his dad.  He's one lucky 8 year old.  Brian got off a very long shift at work, walked in the house at 9:30 pm to a super excited boy ready to go camping. He changed his clothes, put the camping stuff in the car and off they went.  He didn't even take time to eat any dinner.  Kade... you've got an awesome dad.  I hope you know that.
