Monday night.
Softball Banquet.
I’m invited.
Mallory isn’t.
Tell Mallory she is going to Miss Cheri’s because mom & dad are going to dinner.
Here is the conversation:
STB: Mom & dad are going to dinner – you get to play with big Mallory & Bryce!
MCB: I wanna go to the ressaurant!
STB: No, mom & dad are going on a date.
MCB: I wanna go on a date!
STB: We’re just going to eat spinach
MCB: I wanna have spinach!
STB: Well, really we’re just going to have corn (figured this would work because she told us the night before that she doesn’t like corn)
MCB: I wanna have corn. I like corn!
I hated to lie to her but if I told her I was going to see Hutch & Bonnie & Biggie and the softball girls, she would have been so mad that she wasn’t allowed to come!
miel has forbidden us from ever having dates again “until i’m big enough to stay home by myself!”. she was shocked to learn dates were for grown ups to spend time together…just them! i’m afraid we’ve told her for too long that we had to “go to a meeting”….
