...and they're off

This is Brett's first time chaperoning a field trip. Caleb is going to the Science Museum, and they will be seeing the "Dead Sea Scrolls." He asked if I would be able to chaperone, and I teach preschool on Wednesday. He was a little disappointed. I asked if he wanted his father to chaperone, and he said that Brett probably had to work. I called, and Brett cleared his schedule to go with Caleb. Caleb was shocked that his father could go.

So, today is the big day. Caleb is a little afraid that Brett might embarrass him. It didn't help that Brett said he would do some pretty outrageous things like, "I better not drink too much water, I normally have to go to the bathroom several times in the morning because of all of the water I drink. Do you think they will pull the bus over if I need to go to the bathroom?" (O.K. - it wasn't exactly like that, but that was the idea.)

They should have a lot of fun. I am glad that they can go together.
