I took the kids out for root beer floats tonight. This was Ray's mom's idea, and was a brilliant one.

You see, one of the incentives for AJ's fundraiser, is that if you bring in a certain amount of money by a certain day, you can have a root beer float at lunch time. AJ knew this and all weekend was begging us to give him enough money for one. We didn't have the $30 though. So, the compromise was that we would take him to Sonic for a root beer float after school.
