Author’s son

I let the boys pick out their clothes on school picture day. Usually their choices include Minecraft and Pokemon t-shirts.

But, my youngest son had another plan for this year.

I walked into the kitchen and saw him eating his egg-in-the-hole — wearing a black ski mask and matching long underwear.

“I’m going as a ninja for picture day!”
