A Rock's Life

Rock started out the day, just like any other day, by striving to get outside. He was trying to put his shoes on so that Mommy couldn't use that excuse to keep him inside. He had a hard time choosing between his green Crocs and his green camo Crocs. The camo Crocs don't really fit anymore, but they were the ones he found, and it's not like he knows the difference.
After the whole shoe thing was settled he tried to break through DeA's homemade kiddie barrier that she built to mop the floor. He got as high as he could and started asking to go outside. He asked very nicely in his whiny 18-month-old voice that I'm sure all mothers love to hear for about an hour straight.

She finally reminded him that he couldn't go outside until he finished his homework. He wasn't too excited about doing homework in the summer, so he ran and hid.
We roused him out of hiding and made him go back to the office and study. At first he was too hyper from hide-and-seek to concentrate, but he finally settled in and got to work.


AT LONG LAST he was able to go outside and practice his sports so that he can sign a fatty contract and support his parents in their early retirement.

He's got a little work to do on his golf swing and his language on the course.


After working on his golf and baseball swings, his wind sprints and his slide climbing he practiced his showdowns with Connor. They both are pretty intimidating.

The most important part of being a famous athlete? Looking good for the camera!

  1. The rug roll is a great workout, beats lifting the feet while Ma vacuums around him. GpaDE
