Clearly I'm in the right job...I can spin anything.
We have a tradition as of Aidan's 6th birthday to do a scavenger hunt the morning of each child's birthday with a number of small presents equal to their age.
I remembered this tonight. According to tradition, Colin's birthday hunt would have started in about 10 hours.
If it were Aidan, I could get away with forgetting. Not our Cols. You can't get much past him.
So I was proactive and suggested that since we have to be up and out a little earlier than even usual tomorrow (Aidan teacher conference, younger boys going to our friend's before school...bless them!) that we'd all enjoy it more at night when not rushed.
Thankfully, he saw my wisdom.
Thankfully, he did not detect that I hadn't bought him any one of the 6 required presents.
