Thomas Doing Time

Thomas was roped into doing charitable deeds yesterday for his FIM group, the Flint Youth Symphony. So he decided that the least painful was hours and hours of wrapping presents at our local Barnes & Noble with Omid.

I dropped him off, mid-afternoon during a sleet/rain/ice storm and Thomas was filled with dread at the thought of having the deal with The Other.

Amazingly, he survived, I think primarily because the storm kept most shoppers at home and many mothers took a shine to him and bought him cookies from the Barnes & Noble cafe/coffee shop.
