I'm a Vegetarian! But only for today.

Mckenna and I went to Burger King this last weekend, sat at one of the booths and ate our hamburgers and fries. At some point Mckenn decided that she had sat long enough trying to eat while staring at the play area. We don't go to places like this after all, to eat right? It is all about the play area. Mckenna appeases me by sitting there talking to me while I at least finnish eating.

"Daddy, I'm a Vegetarian." She says this of course after just finnishing a hamburger.
Bewildered, I respond, questioning "Vegetarian?"
"Yeah, I don't like meat anymore."
"But you just ate a hamburger silly."
"Yeah, but I just don't like meat anymore."
"Really. So you're not going to eat hamburgers or chicken or fish anymore?"
"Daddy, I'm just a vegetarian today!"

What more can you say to that?

Jr. High Open House

We all went to Devyn's Jr. High School open house last night. Parking was difficult to find and I ended up parking quite a ways from the school. Not such a big deal normally but not fun on crutches. We made our way from one class to the next listening to each teacher give their speach about goals, school and home work, rules and behavior.

So, please tell me! When did all the teachers become younger than me! Nearly every one of Devyn's teachers looked like they were just out of high school. Some were pretty cute by the way. The teachers suddenly went from too old to date... to so younge they probably wouldn't want to date me! "Just kidding Devyn!" :) I fear that this paragraph has hints of mid-life crisis.

It was nice to see Devyn's classes and his school. We grabbed a bite to eat after the open house and didn't make it home till 9:00 pm.
