Mimi called me on the 3rd to wish us a Happy 4th! She was reminiscing about when her little boy used to stay inside and watch cartoons with his Mimi because fireworks petrified him. I fondly remember those times. He wanted nothing to do with the lights and the loud boom.
This year was the first year where he wanted to light the whole world on fire. He was a grinning fool. The neighbor kids came over and he kindly shared. (I think he was afraid of my wrath if he didn't.) I stayed out of it as I didn't want him to share, but he did the right thing. Good for him! I bought the fireworks for J-Bird, not his friends. Sigh!
We invited another soccer family over on the 3rd for dinner and drinks. We all enjoyed having a display of Fountains being lit up for our enjoyment. Obe Wan just watched and talked politics with Prince Charming and Andy. It was quite amusing to listen to their conversation. Obe Wan thinks fireworks are a waste of money. Such a fiscally responsible young man! :)
