I meet up with my sister near my parents house tonight to go for dinner. Carrie, Morgan, & Zachary are staying over at my parents from Monday until tomorrow. Since I didn’t see them while they were in PA this weekend I decided to head out to Bayside for some dinner. My parents were going to a show with friends so they were a no show.
I was surprised when I got picked up at the train to see my dad in the car with my sister. It turns out that my parents hadn’t needed to leave yet, and apparently my nephew didn’t really want to goto dinner without his Poppy. For a little guy of 2 he really lets you know when he doesn’t like something. Hoping to avert a meltdown my dad rode in the car to the restaurant (we went to Jackson Whole) and my mom picked him up there. Well, we may have delayed the meltdown but when my dad left Zach was not so happy. I think everyone in a 2 mile radius knew he wasn’t happy. My sister had to take him outside for a while. That at least gave me time to hang out with Morgan. I can’t believe she starts Kindergarden next week.
I can forgive Zach being loud, because hey he is my nephew. What I cannot forgive is he didn’t give me a hug goodbye, or even a high five. I even tried for a low five, and got nothing. Like he is going to get sugar or chocolate when my sister isn’t looking now. OK, maybe he will anyway but I won’t be happy about it.
I at least got a rid home. And to top off the evening I was able to snag my dad’s Garmen GPS for my trip next weekend.
