The Kid Just Kills Me
Nathaniel loves to visit with us and he was really looking forward to coming down to the house this past weekend for the Super Bowl. The only problem being that on Friday he was still suffering from a runny nose, hacking cough and modest fever. His dad told him, until he got better, he'd have to stay at home.
Nathaniel quickly responded, "Dad, we can still go, Amma is a doctor!" She's not on record with the Connecticut Department of Public Health but, Nathaniel is right, Juls has the wisdom of a country doctor.
On Sunday, John took the kids to church before coming down to the house. At the start of the Mass the priest invited all the children to go with the religious education teacher for their own special service. All the kids poured out of the pews to gather together, including Nathaniel's 4 year old sister, Ayva.
When John asked Nathaniel why he wasn't going to the church hall with the other children, he said matter of factly, "I got to stay in here and watch." Hey, he wouldn't want to miss the Transubstantiation, after all.
I'm thinking about asking him to help me re-balance my portfolio later this week.
