The Late Club President

Apparently, that is what ASid’s Period 1 teacher calls him! And the boy announces it casually!

I was appalled and couldn’t believe my ears. I make an effort to wake up early and wake the boy up; do whatever I can to help him get ready for the day and he is still late for school!! How does that happen?!

This morning, I was sharing my frustration with Hans about his brother’s latest moniker.

I said, “I can’t believe your brother has ruined my reputation as his parent!”

Hans responded with, “No, he is not ruining your reputation!”

Sometimes, there is illogical brotherly love and I needed a good explanation to that defensive outburst.

And this is what Hans had to say, “ASid is the president of a club! You should be proud of him!”

Wow!!

When I shared the above conversation with ASid, he was beaming from ear to ear and had these last famous words to share with me:

“Dad always said to not do a half a** job; so, I went full a** on this one. I am the President of the Late Club. Yes mom, you should be proud of me. Hans is right!”

Wow!!
