The Perks

One of the perks of being a self-employed Dad, is that I often get to stroll down the street around 11:30 to meet William as he gets off the school bus. Regardless of the weather it's always something I enjoy doing. But William is a different cat. To paraphrase Forrest Gump, "William is like a box of chocolates,  you never know what you're going to get". I like to think that God created him simply to keep me and Jill on our toes.

Today as he stepped off the bus he was his usual chatty, smiley self. In fact, he had been cheering up one of his good buddies who was a little homesick, so he was feeling especially good about himself. It was sunny out, I had Bo with me, so I thought I'd snap a photo of my two handsome boys. Dumb, dumb, dumb....In doing so, I inadvertently opened the box of chocolates....

Below are the photos I was permitted to take. He is often a pain in the ass, but he's usually pretty amusing at the same time:)
