Independence

Errol has been away since Thursday morning. Thom was supposed to report to his soccer field at 8 a.m. this morning.  Usually Errol and Thom ride their bikes the few miles to soccer together. When the littles and I go, we take trams and buses. The latter takes much longer.

I told Errol I would strongly prefer not to have to get all our kids out the door that early on Sunday morning. He thought Thom could ride his bike on his own.

And he did.
