We had a lovely Thanksgiving holiday with the boys. They are getting to the age where days off from school seem less like long stretches of trying to find ways to keep them entertained and more like spending good time together and having fun. That morning we went downtown to see the parade. We had watched it on TV last year and there had been interest so we figured why not? On the whole the boys liked it. Jamie sensed the possibility of concessions and so began angling for cotton candy very quickly and lost some interest in the parade itself. To be fair it was hard to see.
Connor stayed a little more engaged. At some point a float sponsored by one of the local sports teams went by, featuring several cheerleaders. Connor watched their progress down the street with his mouth agape. Then came some clowns on bicycles. His face soured. Sarah asked him if he thought the clowns were fun. He replied, "No I don't like clowns. Are there more beautiful girls?"
