Consequences (and Responsibilities)

I had a chance to golf yesterday and today, but life doesn't stop just because I do. Today, I was watching football and taking a nap, but then I realized that there are still things I need to do. Adulting and being a parent means that we have to do the right thing, not the easy or fun thing. Hoping that sometimes fun and easy are the right things...

I hope we get to go to church today. That way tomorrow is more free. I'm lucky that I'm off Monday and I'll get to golf. Didn't really do anything fun this weekend yet (hanging out with you excluded). Still have to do laundry tonight and possibly tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get some work done too. Lesson for today, aside from doing what's right is to balance your life. If you're going to work hard, play hard too. All work and no play make you sad LOL.

Music?

We still haven't figured out what you want to do or what you should do or what you like to do? I think that we probably are doing and trying too much, but we really are trying to give you all the opportunities we didn't have and put you in a place we're you're the best version and have the best chance at a great life.

I was telling mommy that you might have ADHD or you could just be a talkative and scatterbrained kiddo. I really don't know what ADHD symptoms are so I told mom not to take what I said too seriously. Lesson for today, "Listen, Try Your Best, Be Good (and give Space). You did good. Thanks kiddo.

Home Bound

I finally get to go home. You missed me I heard. It’ll nice to be home, but your cousins are gonna miss me too. They were pretty sad this morning. See how lucky you are they your daddy is so loved and liked? You’ll be the envy of all your friends 😂.

I have to poop I think and I’m working alone at this booth. Lesson for today is to poop and pee at home or where you’re comfortable so you don’t get caught having to go in uncomfortable or inconvenient places. I was able to hold the poop until I got home. Sorry my flight was so delayed, but I fulfilled my promise and woke up with you. If you guys travel with me in the future, you can eat good food like this on the company :)

Wild Wednesdays

Your cousins are wild. It must be in the Nguyen DNA since you're pretty wild too. Today Ziggy kept wanting to fight me. Then we went to the skate park. It was a long tiring day. It's good thing they go to sleep early because I'm sooo sleepy. Surprised you haven't called me yet. I finished a little work and now I have some time to blog. It's nice to have time. I won't have any time once I get back to you :)

But I'm sure you'll be glad to have me back. It'll be nice to be back, but I will miss the extra time I have when kids go to bed early. Although they did also wake up early. It was nice that I didn't have to watch them and could get ready for work. it was a long day today and I didn't get to eat lunch. Anyhow, tomorrow repeat and I get to go home, albeit late. I'll wake up with you on Friday. Lesson for today, make sure to pay attention. It only takes a moment for bad things to happen. Fortunately, today it was only someone stepping in poop...

Alone In LBC

Your cousins E and Z asked where you and mommy were. I felt a little bad that you guys weren’t here to enjoy them. Maybe someday we’ll be able to combine work and leisure to get reduce the financial costs of traveling. Although mommy has a lot of costs associated with her time off…

Thanks for calling me and making it quick because I was tired. Your cousins were already sleeping when you called…You got your own positive traits, but sleeping and eating good would be nice additions. Lesson for today, you have to learn to swim so you can save yourself, sorry you were late to swimming…

I’ll Miss You Buddy

You’ll miss me too, but I hope you’ll have a good time with your mommy and Miss Sana and anyone else you encounter when I’m gone. I promise that we’ll do things and you can ask me questions when I get home. 

I was so confused when you told me your favorite hero was “Z”, but now I get it. Lesson today, sometimes the simple things in life can bring the most enjoyment. It’s really up to you.

You'll Try

I wonder if you really know what that means. I guess it's nice that you say it. You seem to remember a lot. We need to be careful what we say. You sure remember a lot. Mommy has a habit of speaking in English a lot LOL. We need to work on your smile. Although your closed eyes are still pretty cute. Sorry we couldn't go to the pumpkin patch today. Lots to do.

At least you woke up from your nap early and on your own. It gave us time to not have to rush to church. Today's lesson (re-lesson) is to show what's important to you, but how you spend your time (and hopefully show up on time). Right now, I have some control over you (not mommy), but someday, you'll be in charge of that on your own. I hope you make the "right" choices...
