The way his life is

Today at lunch:

Sweetie: "Mom, I really want a play date with Ben."

Me, not really paying attention: "I know honey, his mom and I talked about it and that we'd do it after the holidays. I need to call her."

Sweetie: "But Mom, I can't figure out when we can EVER do a play date. He's in MELC(before and after school daycare). And he's Jewish. And we're Christian. When can we ever find a time for a play date? There's just not one."

Me, paying attention but with no answers: "Oh. We'll figure something out."

Sweetie: "Maybe dinner one night."

Me: "Maybe."

He's a thinker! To help with the dilemma....there's always MLK holiday coming up as a possibility, eh?
