Surprise! Surprise!

Today, Tyler's summer daycare class went to Gattitown for pizza and video games. So, I decided that I would take my lunch break and surprise him by showing up to eat lunch with him there and, of course, to play video games! Not only did I surprise Tyler, but I surprised all of the other 12 kids that were in his class. When I walked into the dining area where they were eating lunch, they all got up and almost tackled me! You would have thought that I was a celebrity! I guess since none of the other parents were there, they just adopted me as everyone's dad for lunch! That was fine with me because I've known most of these kids for about 3 years or so. I had a lot of fun, not only with Tyler, but Jordan, Josh, Cameron and Anna, too. I think Tyler was very surprised and very happy and proud that his dad was there! I think it made him feel cool! I know it won't always be like that, though. I know the day is coming when for Tyler, it won't be so cool to have his dad around his friends. I am hoping that never happens, but I know that most teenagers go through that at some point. Wow! I can't believe I am thinking about him being a teenager already! He's only 5 and 3/4 for goodness sakes! Oh well, enjoy them while their little! Today was one of those cool father/son moments that really was no big deal, but a very big deal at the same time! I'm glad that I went!
