Well after lunch at IHOP (at his request), a nap (at mine), Ben finished the day off by eating Amanda’s special ice cream from the fridge for dessert.   The last part was her fault too as I told her in advance that I was giving him the ice cream container because he wanted to eat ice cream with her.  She didn’t make it in time.  RIP Amanda’s ice cream.

But the day was harder than I thought.  I had a lot of opportunities to work, but I set them aside to goof off with Ben.  It was a great time too.  We played and ate and played some more.  I am “Robin” when Scott is not around, and Ben is always “Batman.”  When his mask is up though he is just Ben.  He really doesn’t grasp that whole Bruce Wayne thing…..yet.

We are now up in our room with the Batman movie on starring Adam West.  It is awesome too.  Adam West is a brilliant actor, overacting so much that I am convinced he is a comic genius.  Every time I see him drinking warm milk at a fancy restaurant out of that wine glass I about lose it!  I would love to know how many takes it took to do those scenes without laughing.

So I will enjoy this end of the day movie and look forward to tomorrow.  It has been a great one and not quite over yet either.  So it’s off to watch some more of the movie.  I have seen it many times with Ben, but with my brain there is always the possibility I may be able to forget the end!  I think however, Batman wins.

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
