Birthday Shopping

G's birthday is coming up this Monday and the boy has been chomping at the bit to go shopping for her present. After he waited so very patiently for me to be done at work, I got him some lunch and then went to his requested shopping destination: Target. Now for all you haters of weapons, I get it. We are not big gun people even though we both shoot skeet from time to time and own the proper hardware for such a venture. I do not bash those who are big gun people either. The gun people I know are very responsible and treat their property with the respect it needs and deserves. Different strokes, you know? So the boy decided to get his sister a Nerf rifle for her birthday. Now they can each be armed to shoot at targets in the yard. And, no, the targets are not each other. That calls for automatic "Bye bye Nerf" mode from the parents. It was so cute how he scrutinized each possibility on the shelf, counted his money and made his choice. He also wanted to get her a $111 Lego set and was a bit disappointed that he hadn't brought enough money to get that for her as well. Funny guy.

Soccer practice is a half hour away from being over. G is having a good time even though she protested going. She always moans a bit, but she ends practice smiling every time.

Have a good evening all.
