Quick game of bball

I love the fact that work has a drop in day care. Stephen was there today and in between meetings I shot some hoops with him

Wow he is small for his size...

As a kid, I was average size and could hold my own and then some. So to keep hearing people tell me how small my son is for his age drives me insane. Specially when they do it in front of him. Here is a typical conversation:

Stupid adult: "Oh, how old are you Stephen"
Stephen: Saying it proudly, "I am 7 years old"
Stupid adult: "Wow you are small for your age, I thought you were 5"

For me to say anything at that point would embarrass my son, so we just move on and I explain to him that people come in all sizes and it does not matter. In my heart what I want to say is:

"He is small, but he still can grow. You can't get any smarter and your gonna keep getting ugly to match your ignorance in saying that to my kid...Dumb ass....

I am gonna have Stephen bulk up and take self defense classes, so when one of these ignorant parents children start some crap with him, he can take care of business. As a last resort of course.....

July 4th Weekend

We had a quiet weekend with the kids. It was nice to just hang out and play. We went to the pool, played board games, road bikes, harvested our garden, and went to see fireworks. Below are a few pictures. Most of them are with my cell phone. I really need to start carrying the real camera around. It does so much better...

For more pictures check out our Kodak Family Album
