a bagel date

Gene hung out with 4 of his college friends this past Saturday.  One of his friends, "Uncle" Tom, stayed with us on Friday night.  The guys were gone all day Saturday.  At supper Saturday night, I had this conversation with the kids:

C: When is Daddy going to be home?
Me: Remember I told you that he would be back after supper some time.  He's out with his friends.
K: It's kind of like he's on a date.  Do you think they are at the bagel place?  (She's been asking to go to Einstein Bagels on a Mommy-Daughter date.)
Me: That's true.  It is kind of like they are on a date.  But Daddy is just hanging out and having fun with all his friends.  I don't think they went to eat bagels.

*Side note: For the record, I have no idea why Kins has been asking to go eat bagels or how she even knows Einstein's is a bagel place.  But, she's been asking quite frequently to go.  So after church on Sunday she and I went.  It took her 45 minutes to eat her bagel.  But she ate the whole thing, plus half a muffin.  And we both loved every minute of it!
