The adventures of Gary, Nic, Ginger and Dolley as they navigate life in a crazy world. They love sports, reading bed-time stories and of course, the Hokies.

 

Apparently 33 is the New Methuselah

Go Bears! ... in 2009.This morning, as my son was wiping the sleep from his eyes and asking me to lay down in his bed for a bit before we went downstairs for breakfast, he told me that he was three years old and that on his next birthday, he will be four. Then he asked:

“How old are you, daddy?”

“Thirty-three,” I said.

“Wow! That’s really old, daddy! That’s a lot of birthdays!”

You have to appreciate honesty like that! Of course 33 isn’t old, but in the eyes of a 3-year-old, it’s a lifetime.

Nic also said that he wants to be an astronaut and that he wants to grow up fast so he can become one … I just smiled and told him to promise me that he wouldn’t grow up too fast, he said he’d try not to.

I love my little boy!
