Today was "Take your Kid to Work Day". I found out about it at lunch time. I suspect that John knew about it and accidentally on purpose forgot to tell me. He was probably worried that I would force him to take all 4 boys to work for the day.
Can you imagine the looks on his coworkers faces if he trotted into a meeting with all four boys?
As it turned out, I drove Wyatt to John's work at 4pm and he got to hang out with Daddy for an hour. Wyatt loaded up on candy from people's desks and came home hyped up beyond belief. He literally couldn't stop talking at dinner. And he kept calling us "Donald". "Can I have some more pizza Donald?" "Donald, what are we having for dessert?". We would say "Wyatt, stop talking!" and he would say "Ok, Donald"!
I am already putting "Take your Kids to Work Day" on the calendar for next year so that we can plan accordingly. My thoughts are that I can drop a different kid off at John's work every 2 hours and pick up the last kid. That way everybody gets to go to work with Daddy. It will be like a relay race passing the baton to the next kid until 5pm. Now I just have to figure out how to get Donald to go for it?
