Mama took off on Friday to do a massive cleaning and straightening of Chase's room so she took Chase to school. She told Nanaw about the line of children waiting to write their names on the board to sign in. Mama said she agreed with Nanaw that it was a funny thing to watch -- the boys and girls took forever to sign in, and they kept erasing what they'd written and start over again. Mama said it would be a miracle if they all finally got signed in, Nanaw sent Mama a picture of an eyeball Chase left on Pawpaw's bed -- that boy loves his eyeballs. Nanaw went over to Chase's house when it was time to pick Chase up from school, and Mama drove them to school. Chase was very cute about seeing both Mama and Nanaw there to pick him up. When he got up to leave, his friend Brady came running up behind him and gave him a swat on his bottom -- very funny. After school, Mama, Chase and Nanaw did Nanaw's errands: getting money at the bank (they asked where Chase was and sent a sucker out to him waiting in the car -- very funny); going to Dollar Tree; and going to Schnuck's for a cherry chip cake mix and frosting for cousin Lindsey's birthday celebration Sunday evening. When Chase got home, Mama showed him his cleaned-up room, and he said it was perfect. He played with his kinetic sand and was delighted to find the long-missing Leonardo car. For dinner, Mama, Daddy, Chase and Nanaw went to O'Charley's by Target and Costco. Kids eat free, so Chase's dinner was free.
