Fridays

For the last few months, Fridays have meant Collin and I spend time together getting coffee before Jarrod gets off work.  My office closes at 4:00 on Fridays, so I head over to Collin's daycare and pick him up a little bit earlier than usual.  We travel a couple of blocks over to Starbucks, and he gets to experience the hipster, college environment well beyond his years.

Mommy gets "cossee", Collin gets juice and maybe a little something to munch on and then we just sit.  We people-watch and pretend that the wooden coffee stir-sticks are swords.  Ok, so I watch people and Collin does that other thing!

We don't stay long, just long enough to pass a few minutes so we can arrive back at home around the time Jarrod gets there.  But it's enough.  Enough to have my boy tell me recently on days other than Friday, "I wanna go get cossee, Mommy."  And each time he has said that, I've told him, "Ok, we will on Friday!"

Hipster in the making
