Also, He is in Favor of World Peace

I am glowing because Tuesday is the day of free.


Free breakfast at Chick-fil-A!

Free birthday burger AND ice cream at Red Robin!

I am down with free food, especially when it is tastier than the cold, dry pizza various collegiate organizations used to provide as bribery and lure for students. And which I ate quite liberally.

At this point, I'm really done sharing about the free and wonderful things provided us today and am segueing into a segment about Jackson's sweetness.

This transition may seem a little clumsy because it is my very crafty and authorish way of giving all readers who are not family members ample time to exit the blog.

(NOW SEGUEING...)

(FEEL FREE TO LEAVE.)

(If you stay around I have to type out all kinds of disclaimers about how I know the following statements are somewhat contrived and may or may not prove to be true and how I really don't think my kid is better than your kid, except I do a little bit, because of course, he's my kid.)

(LAST CHANCE.)

So there we sat at Red Robin, savoring the freeness and deliciousness of my eleventy millionth birthday celebration because remember, FREE was involved.

And I LOVE free. Because it doesn't cost anything.

At which time Jackson said, "Mom and Dad, I am going to say something that will just delight you."

Well our ears perked right up at that.

"I want to obey everything you say and serve God with all my heart my entire life."

Sigh.

(You were warned.)
