This Past Thursday, we didn't forget you!

We left the gas station at 5:30 and we were supposed to be picking you up at 5:30. I can't work late on Thursday for my singing soldier.

Your father says, Oh yes, we have to pick up Ezra. WHAT? I said they close that school down at 5:30, I think. We are late? I was livid. I kept my composure and your father drove like a maniac. We were silent going there for my baby. They are going to take him to the Police station. They are going to close the school on him. He's probably afraid.

Of course you weren't afraid. Walker men are much more resilient than I think they are. They are strong and powerful men and determined to make the best of situations. I learned that about you, as your father silently and strongly sped to pick you up.

We had a good Christmas. I got a tablet and you.

Learning to use technology and not be used by technology, has always been my goal. I can't really find the balance, but I am looking for it.

I love that you are an innovator{somebody looking for a better way}. I don't like that you cut holes in my favorite jacket. A pocket is not a hole. Today we are scheduled to buy the supplies to make a pocket for your tablet. How does a man carry a tablet? I love that question. My goal is to help you think through this and carry it with masculinity and style. I am trying to hide my tablet from the home police{Elyse} who would whip me sore, if she saw me carrying it to school. She is right and you are right to think through this problem. She will frisk me mother. She will find it and I will be in trouble! I understand. Don't carry it to school. Carry it other places and we will make a pocket. I love your design for the jacket. Don't cut holes. Add material to make a better pocket! also I want to work with brother and you on writing Thank you notes. Maybe? We'll see if we can't get both done on one day. Thank you Martin Luther King for a day to celebrate Thankfulness and God honoring resourcefulness!
