Chris Cooley Eats Here...

Chris Cooley is a Washington Redskins player (apparently). Today on Twitter, he wrote about having lunch at Moby Dicks. My friend Carolyn and I have gone to this one, because it is in between our two houses. I thought about Moby Dicks all day, and took the kids there for dinner since Mike had a work function.

It turns out that yes, he does go there all the time, and no, he was not there for dinner. The kids had a blast and we got ice cream from next door after. I was SOOOOOO proud of Connor on the way out. He ate some of his ice cream, but had a lot left. I asked him if he wanted to take it home, and he said yes, so I snapped the lid on, and we headed out. In the midst of juggling the stroller off the sidewalk, and grabbing Connor's hand, I tossed his ice cream on the ground. Like all food dropping incidents - it of course landed ice cream side down. I'm pretty sure that when that happened and I was a kid - I would have burst into tears. I quickly stared at Connor and apologized, and waited to see how it would play out. I figured that it was 50/50. He said that it was ok, and helped me throw away the smashed tub. WOW - what a big guy. He's so cool. I was really really impressed.
