But we went up to Lake Superior for the Fourth of July holiday weekend and I tried a little experiment. I brought no toys. At all. Like "find some rocks and sticks and have fun boys" kind of a weekend.
And I will do it again. It was perfect. Cause really, what can you fight over with an endless supply of rocks and sticks. Well they found stuff to fight over, but it was better than usual.
But Caleb discovered some Post-It notes in a drawer. They were better than toys. I think we probably owe my parents a new pad of notes.
But at one point, he walked up to me, unprompted, like this.
"Sorry girls, mom said no dateing."
"Every day I run 4 mile becaus the girls wont stop chasing me. Stop! Help!!!!"
And all I can say is...yeah, help. We're right on the edge.
Girls back off.
Unless you are cool.
And then, ok, I'll be happy to see you...
...in about nine years.
