I didn't know what I might write about tonight until I got home and David told me about his evening. I left Dennis with him while I went shopping and to the lake to deliver groceries. Sure, Dennis and I had a nice day at school, enjoying the Thanksgiving 'feast' with all the classes (popcorn, apples, cheese, cornbread). And we were honored to get a phone call from church asking us to be one of the families that will light an Advent candle in the traditional service and read a scripture or something--our week is December 5. And, after we left school, I heard Dennis find his cell phone and call Gran and invite her to eat lunch with us and I heard him say "at San Marcos, we will see you there, bye!". She called me on my phone to confirm! We had a nice meal with both Gran and Pop there, and it was all his doing (I thought we'd just go home for sandwiches, but he apparently had other plans in mind).
The best thing was tonight, though, when David told me they were watching a movie together and Dennis suddenly decided to pull David's socks off. He went to put them on himself and discovered they were very long dress socks, thigh high on Dennis, so he disappeared. When he reappeared, he'd removed his pajamas, put on the sock-hose, put on red-white-and-blue plaid shorts and an olive green t-shirt, put on his royal blue Vestavia ball cap, donned his fire boots, and had his toolbox in hand. He announced that he was dressed and ready for work. He climbed under his table and made David hand him tools from his box as he made his repairs. The difference between David and me in this situation? I'd have most assuredly snapped a picture!
He was thankful for the cars that he plays with and the food at San Marcos today.
