Allan has his 5th grade pool party today.  He informed me that it wouldn't hurt his feeling if I didn't make it to the pool party.  I asked him to be honest with me if  he really wanted me to come and he responded, "If I told the truth would it hurt your feelings?" I reasured him it wouldn't and so he said, "no".  I had to smile and I appreciated his thoughtfullness to not offend me.
