Tonight, as Vincenzo was doing his homework, he asked me if I would do it for him.
He was being funny.
So I said "Nope! But nice try, buddy," as I walked back into the kitchen and the dish-washing extravaganza that was my evening.
He hollered into the kitchen: "See, this is why I think parents should drink more beer."
Apparently, if I drink more beer, I will forget silly rules like do your own homework and will gleefully fill in the blanks and look up kangaroo rat in the index and read Chapter 5, Lesson 2.
Note to self: stay away from the children's homework when enjoying the drink.
