Jim celebrated his birthday yesterday. He isn't one who loves being sang to or having candles, but he does love cake (he also got chicken fried steak)! Sometimes, as we get older, the celebrations seem less amazing. Jim got to celebrate his day by taking a day off work. Then, because he was off work, he took Preston to an orthopedic appointment (where Preston was released!). Jim was happy because he got to go out for lunch with Preston! He then got to spend the evening watching Quincy play basketball. Some people might not find this to be an amazing birthday celebration, but Jim loves watching the kids play just about any sport!
Quincy's team didn't win, but when watching the warm ups we thought it would be a terribly lopsided game. They did a great job not getting killed!
I am happy that we have our Jim. He is the dad who is always showing the kids stuff. Explaining it to them. The one who is willing to rehash every play in a game with them, always teaching. He has a mind for fairness, order, and is an excellent peacekeeper in a house that isn't always sane. We love you Jim! So glad you don't mind having your birthday hijacked!
