My son has ESP

The holiday season is almost over. I wasn't sure if we were going to be able to get all our shopping done in time this year. My wife was brave (or insane depending on how you look at it) enough to put on the full body armor and wade into the most dangerous territory one can imagine in search of last minute gifts...the mall.

Here is what she looked like (and I am sure it wasn't enough to keep her safe)...




Okay okay, so she didn't really wear a suit like that, but I am thinking she should have. That place is truely a battlefield this time of year. The mall, and the 5 mile radius around it are to be avoided at all costs. I will add another 25 minutes to my drive just to avoid it.

Anyways.

My wife's brother and his family came for Christmas this year. Unlike most people I talk to out there, I actually really like my wife's family. Her brother and his wife have 2 kids that our son just loves playing with. I was really hoping that her dad would come this year as well. He wasn't able to make it, but we are going to get him up here again soon.

Her brother's kids show up and they both have one of those PSP's. You know, the hand held mind numbing things Sony likes to call a game/movie unit.



Drew just thought this was the neatest thing since, well, his Wii. Of course they just HAD to have the Star Wars Battlefront game on it so that just added to the overall "cool" factor for him. Well, grandpa (in his behind the scene plot to get back at Jayna for all the things she put him through when she was a kid) decided that since they both had one, Drew had to have one too. So he sent a PSP up with her brother to give to Drew.

We decided to give it to him yesterday since the other two had theirs. It has been nothing but constant blaster fire, "I GOT YOU!!!!", "Dad, he keeps killing me" ect...

Oh, and Drew is so funny. He has been telling everyone that his "papa" gave him a "ESP".

My son officially has ESP now.
