May the Fourth Be With You

So, last year, because Fourth of July was on a Sunday night, the powers that run the local fireworks show decided that it would be best if they ran the fireworks on Saturday night. But, your mom and dad didn't get the memo. So, we waited and waited, and when the usual crowds of people did not suffocate us with their stink - or even manage to show up - we realized that maybe we managed to screw up your first 4th of July. But, it was OK, we lit some fireworks on the street and you were entertained!

But, this year, we made the commitment not to allow you to miss the big fireworks that they let off at the local high school near Glamma's house. So, the family went down to Grandma's house for a kick ass BBQ and fireworks.

Whilte waiting, you played with a green ball and mom tried to get you to ride a bike made for 14 year olds. Needless to say, you couldn't quite ride the bike, but you sure did look cute in that helmet!

When the fireworks finally started, you were enteretained for 5 minutes and then you got bored and started to destroy everything around you. At one point, you even placated mom for the first time. You see, mom told you to look at a cool firework, so you looked, and then in a very placating tone you said, "oh wow!" You then immediately looked away and then continued your previous activity of destroying your Uncle Brother's comics because you TOTALLY didn't care what mom had just showed you.

You're so cute. Hey, we're not asking you to be honest, we just want you to be nice! It's not that dishonesty will make you a better person, we're just trying to prepare you for the working world :)
