Subject: You just gotta love them!I was out of town last night at a meeting in Mississippi and this is a copy of the email I received from my wife today while I was in a meeting. Christopher did not want to go to bed and made every excuse you can imagine to keep from going to his room. I finally got him to bed around 9:00. As I was tucking him in, he asked, "Is Daddy staying in a hotel tonight?" and I said yes. "Poor Daddy," he said. I agreed without telling him that on some nights, I would love to be alone in a hotel room, sleeping as much as I wanted without interruption! Then Christopher said, "But he has to stay in a hotel because he can't stay with her." "Who?" I asked. "That lady," Christopher replied. I have to admit my curiosity was peaked. "What lady?" I asked. Christopher just buried his head in his pillow. "Christopher, what lady?" He still refused to answer. "WHAT LADY, Christopher?" He turned to me and said, "Miss Assippi." In relief, I explained to him that Mississippi was not a person, but a place. I am glad she finally got him to tell her what he was thinking, I was about to get in trouble for somehting that I didn't do!
