Yesterday morning as I dropped the older kids off at Teri's house. Joel wanted to stay too, but he had to go to his babysitter's house. So, he wanted to know if he could stay at her house that night. I said I would ask, and he was ok with that. When I picked him up after work yesterday, he asked me if he could stay at Teri's again. I'd forgotten to ask, so I called her. She said it would be ok, but not until she got home. We went home and did a few things around the house until she called. She had a meeting to go to, but Ernie's cousin would watch him until she got home. So I took him over there. He was happily playing outside on the play eqipment when I left.
This morning I learned what happened after that. Not long after I left he decided he wanted to come home. Ernie offered to drive him, but no, he wanted to walk. He wasn't going to tak no for an answer. Ernie walked with him. As they neared the end of the drive, Teri was coming home. That didn't deter him. He was walking home!
They made it almost halfway to my house when he finally told Ernie that he wanted to go back to their house, and to call Aunt Teri to pick them up. Fortunately Ernie was a good sport and considered it good excercise.
