Child enters room.  Approaches tired distracted father and says, “Can I ride my bike over to mumble mumble’s house?”

Father trying to repeat it for his own sake, “You are going over to Jason’s house.”

Son, louder, “No, can I go over to inaudible’s house?”

Father struggling a tad, “Jason’s house.”

Son, frustrated, “No!  Random boy name’s house.”

Father guessing boy names, “Chase’s house?”

Son, about ready to give up, “Jackson’s house!”

Father, certain that he heard it, “Jackson’s house?”

Son, somewhat relieved, “Yes, can I go over to Jackson’s house?”

Father trying to remember Jackson, but unable to summon any mental images.  Only able to muster a shrug, “Okay, be home by Six for dinner.”

Job well done, dad.

Only about 130 days of Summer to go.
