June 18, 2011

Thought I'd recruit some help from Jocelyn and Jesse for today's email. A little interview...

What is a fun memory you have of Daddy?

Jesse: When I went shopping with dad I helped him.

Jocelyn: We went shopping and he let me have the king sized M&Ms but they weren't actually M&Ms because they were all chocolate. And another fun time was when we played outside and sometimes when we play outside I hug daddy too much even when I hold his hand sometimes, I think all the time. That's a big answer mom.

Jesse: When I was outside with daddy, and when I played with him a lot. We played bingo. Then we were playing catch together. And then when me and dad were going to get the mail and then we were going back to play ball. And then I did something called baseball. Then we played baseball with me and dad and Timothy and then daddy kicked the ball I even caught it and then he kicked it so high it went in the street so he went to get it. Said Jesse. Did you spell said Jesse? That's all.

Jocelyn: I think when I was 2 dad made me a little hair style that was like a baby hair style like a little kid pony tail with my hair a little up. I have a picture of that. And another fun time when Grandpa was here he had to go to subway. Before that we were playing basketball and I had a fun time.

What are some things Daddy says a lot?

Jocelyn: Clean up your room.

Jesse: You can have a break from cleaning.

Jocelyn: Clean up the toy room.

Jocelyn: I love you too Jocelyn.

Jesse: Can you go get my chh chh (inhaler)?

Jocelyn: Get out of my way please.

Jesse: Today on Father's Day he told me you look funny sweeping the game room. And that's all. Said Jesse.

What does Daddy like to eat a lot? (Jocelyn is now doing the questions)

Jocelyn: Some things jewish and his favorite cookies.

Jesse: Ribs.

What does Daddy like to watch a lot that's kids?

Jocelyn: Tough Puppy

Jesse: He likes to watch football, which I like to watch a lot. Said Jesse. Me and dad like to watch Dare Devil. Did you spell said Jesse? Are you spelling said Jesse?

What day does Daddy like to celebrate?

Jocelyn: I know that he likes Father's Day. That's today. 2011. Even one holiday he likes to go to celebrate on is Christmas and even Hanukkah.

What does Daddy read a lot?

Jocelyn:

What does Daddy like to watch that is super awesome?

Jocelyn: Hockey. AND Tough Puppy. AND don't forget Dare Devil.

Jocelyn: now it's Jesse's turn to do it.

What does Daddy like to play with?

Jesse: Daddy likes to play games like bingo.

Jocelyn: and Daddy likes to play with Jocelyn and Jesse and play video games with them

Jesse: that's what I was just gonna say

Jocelyn: awesome

What does Daddy like to do?

Jocelyn: Dad likes to watch TV shows even hockey even he likes to read books. Now Jesse's turn.

Jesse: Daddy likes to play video games like Mario Bros but he played the whole family one day but we have to get new controllers then we can play 4 people. Can I go play video games now?

What does Daddy know that the kids do?

Jocelyn: sometimes they play with each other nicely and he likes to see them playing nicely. You like that too, right Mom? Even he likes to go shopping with Jocelyn because she's nice and quiet. I really am. AND he knows what the kids do all the time because sometimes he hears or see or... yeah. And every time he knows what kids do, he kinda does his own thing sometimes. The End.

**************
Josh was kind enough to buy himself his own Father's Day gift (Dare Devil #1), so the only thing I could add to that was to do a little cleaning before he got up. Timothy and Jesse did the toy room while I learned how to use the dishwasher, and then Jesse did the game room all by himself and got all the trash and dishes out of the living room. I mention this because I decided to reward him with $3, which just happened to be the exact amount he needed to have enough (thanks to a recent cash infusion from Uncle Aaron and Aunt Abbe) to buy the skateboard he's been talking about for a month or so! He was SUPER excited and handed over his money to me so I could order it off the computer. Josh will go out this week and get him a helmet (since I have a feeling he'll need it!), and then he already has all the knee and elbow pads and such that he got for Hanukkah with his roller skates. I'll be sure to take a picture when he rides for the first time!

That's the news from here - happy father's day to all the dads!
