For the last month or so, this little guy has been asking to come to work with me. I kept telling him that it would have to wait until he has a day off from school. Well, today was Presidents Day, and school was out for the day. So, he made sure that he was going to be coming to work with me. Yesterday, after church, he kept reminding me that today was a holiday from school and that he would be going to work. He also made sure of it by sleeping in mom and dad's bed so that he would get up at the same time with Dad and go with Dad. This morning when I got up it was only like 4:30 or 5 in the morning. So, I got up and let the little man sleep in. Well, when he woke up and saw that I wasn't in the bed, oh, he got pretty upset with Mom. He thought I had left him behind and did not take him to work. He got pretty sad. But, then he saw me come into the room around 6:30 or so and all was good and forgiven. We went to work together today with his older brother, Ethan. Ethan still gets to work Monday, Wednesday and Friday usually about a half a day and then has to take off for school assignments and homework but, the two got to work together today so that was kind of nice. Eli earned $20 today. He was pretty stoked.
Eli said something pretty funny to me today. I asked him what he wanted to do when he got older. He said, I will play some basketball, and "I will take your place when you die. Somebody has to take your place when you die".
