Funny

Yesterday I was mowing the lawn and before I was done mowing, Sarah had to go to work. So, she came outside, said that Ethan was inside finishing up his lunch and that she had to go. I thought "cool, I will be done in 5 minutes and then go in and eat with him." After maybe two or three minutes I finished mowing, put the lawn mower up and headed into the house. When I walked through the door, there was Ethan standing on a chair in front of the fish aquarium. In his left hand he held the net and in his right hand was one of the fish. I was really ticked at first, and was about to blow, when Ethan turned to me with a smile on his face and said' "look at this daddy, I caught a fish."

It was awesome he was so proud of catching a fish and wanted me to see it. I have talked about going fishing and hunting and he always says he wants to go. I realized how much he wants to be just like me and how he strives to do things that will make me happy. I love that kid. He is so much fun. Then I started to think. How many times have I been to the fish store and the worker can't catch the fish. The sad thing is there's like 50 of them in the aquarium. My son however pulls off this amazing feet at the sly age of 3. That's right he caught a fish in an aquarium with only 8 fish in it. I could no longer help being upset with him. No, dad was proud of his son because he was trying to do what Dad has always talked about doing.
