School Football

The boy gave the school football team selections a miss this time. His point was that matches are few, there are many contenders and he hardly gets a chance to play in the matches. The school training requires the boy to be in school on Monday's and Wednesdays at 630 am and there is a whole lot of getting ready to do for the wife and him before that.

Festive ocassion

 And the boy came with me to meet my mother reluctantly. His last trip to see her was in November 2023. The wife did not accompany us.

The boy's priorities have changed. I don't know if this is a phase of his life where he does not want to miss out on things. TV time and playing with friend's are his priority now. He hardly spoke to my mother and after lunch he gently started nudging me suggesting that we leave. Since my mother had old school cable TV with only regional programs, the boy did not have anything interesting to watch either.

Times change.
