Mason was all torn up about Walker being gone on the Washington DC trip.
Bill was not much better. They were mopey and sad.
Until I mentioned going to breakfast at IHOP.
Then it was like the sun came out. Mason had big plans to take full advantage of only child status. He settled in quickly and lived it up even after only one day.
After breakfast, we sold popcorn and relaxed a bit. Then mid-afternoon, we went to the church picnic to celebrate the 150th anniversary of St. John the Baptist Parish. Mason ran around, played with friends of all ages and visited each and every inflatable. We went to 5:30 pm mass and socialized afterwards with more friends. When we got home, we wrapped up the day with a few episodes of the Simpsons. It was Mason’s kind of Sunday.
Too sweet!
