I know- weird title. But. My mind is on the movie, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, and also on basketball. Random.
Todd’s gone for about four days so the kids and I had our own hang out day yesterday. Since the time changed it was a looong day that never seemed to end.
We went and saw the aforementioned movie. I really enjoyed it. Jack loved it and Ri could have cared less. She was actually quite a bit obnoxious during the movie but we were able to finish it.
The movie centered around the central theme of what happens when you have too much greed. (In a nutshell). I tried to talk to Jack about this and I think he almost got it. And then- by chance- we read The Lorax by Dr. Suess today, which also has a theme of greed. Another opportunity for me to chat w/ Jack about greediness.
It was weird. Such a big conversation- twice in one day- with my first born.
I hope he ‘gets it.’ And remembers it.

On another note- we signed Jack up for basketball. It’s pretty basic and mostly about the fundamentals ( I hope at least). He’s been playing quite a bit in the driveway so we’ll see how he does. Little does he know that the goal will probably be a bit higher and the ball a bit bigger. I hope he enjoys it.
Here’s some recent pics of Jack practicing.
Until next time…
