Oh, yeah
I raise my son like my parents raised me – after all, it’s all I know.
But the one thing that I do differently is to give the boy a sense that physical education is as important as a mental one.
Now, my dad swam every single day for at least 90 minutes a day, for years.
Yet, he never emphasized physical fitness to me, something that I picked up myself after getting beaten up one-too-many times.
On that note, the boy’s really been excelling at his swimming lately.
And he also got his first stripe on his new belt.
Him: Are you proud of me?
Me: Super proud! But more importantly, are you proud of yourself?
Him: Yes!
Me: Good – because that’s really the most important thing.
As for me, I need to work out a lot more because I keep finding myself out and about.
The Frenchman and Bryson swung by my hood the other night, so we hit up my local dive bar and caught each other up on what been going down.
Him: How is deep fried cauliflower any better than French fries?
Me: Because it’s deep-fried cauliflower!
Both of them: (shake their heads)
I also filled in the Frenchman on why I pick my particular types of physical activities.
Frenchman: Wait, is that why you do BJJ?
Me: Yup! Bryson said I was too much a germaphobe to ever do anything like BJJ.
Bryson: So, Logan’s been doing BJJ all these years purely to prove me wrong.
Me: My level of petty spite is pretty spectacular.
Frenchman: And you’re really a germaphobe?
Bryson and me: (nodding) Oh, yeah.
Hey, it works is all I’m say’n…
