one down, one to go

I'm down a kid this week. My in-laws took my oldest to Florida with them for the week. We fly down with the youngest this weekend. This is the first time Cody's been on a trip without one of us. It's weird only having Keaton here. It's weird to think he's half way across the country and able to survive without me. It's weird that he wasn't crushed at the idea of leaving me to go away to an exciting land of warm weather, pools, beaches, parks and no school. They even  upgraded to first class. He's going to get a nice warm dose of reality on the flight home.

It's kind of nice to focus on just one kid for a week. Keaton's never been an only child and seems to have grown accustomed to it very very quickly. We Face Timed with Cody this evening. Cody wasn't interested in talking to me, but was very interested in telling his little brother all about the swimming pool and park. Nevermind that his younger brother is not even 2 and just wants to push buttons on the phone. I only gave him life. No big deal.

The plus side of having one kid is my evening was free at 8PM. I'm using this free time wisely by blogging and watching Poetic Justice. Yes, that Poetic Justice. TuPac is alive, yo! P.S. Janet Jackson needs to stop trying to act. The fashion is hot though. TuPac has a "diamond" in his nose the size of my thumb nail. If that isn't gangster, I don't know what is. This was Janet's best music though. Well, with the exception of Nasty Boy. They could have fit that song into the movie somewhere.

In true 4th Gear fashion I switch from Poetic Justice to Idina Menzel concert on public access. For those of you that are clueless who I'm talking about - she played the witch in Wicked on Broadway, Rachel's mom on Glee and is married to Taye Diggs - that tall, glass of chocolate milk. Yum. It's on all the time. Check it out. It will make you a better person.

Don't call me baby. It's Molly. Ms. 4th Gear if you're nasty.
