Define: Quality Time


An indicator that your 8 year old has more perspective than you anticipated:
Alex and I went to my nephew Jake’s high school graduation yesterday afternoon, it was your typical 2 hour ceremony that involves some sentimental music, painful band/chorus music, video presentation and then the final presentation of the diploma.  Last night as we were settling to bed, I asked Alex what his favorite part of the weekend was.  I then sarcastically (hard to believe, I know) replied, “Wait, I bet it was sitting two hours for Jake’s graduation!”  He calmly replied, “No, that was number 4”. 

4) going to Jake’s graduation
3) push mowing some lawn for grandpa
2) weeding the garden
1) having S’mores at Kate’s
