It has been my goal since becoming a father to either get work or positive economic benefit from my children. I have come to realize that with the expense of raising kids today this is a great challenge and something I had expected to have to wait many years to realized. Yet today, I was able to realize one of my prouder moments as a parent.Chick-fil-A was running a Labor Day promotion today where you could get a free three-piece chicken strip meal if you showed up between 10:30 and closing wearing clothing with a college football team logo. So, the Hemrick family made a trip to Chick-fil-A decked in our college logo t-shirts and got our twelve free chicken strips. Yes, I used my 9 month old son and three year old daughter to get free chicken strips. Seeing how Kate only ate one chicken strip and of course Owen is too young to each chicken strips, I basically got five free chicken strips which will be my lunch tomorrow. Score one for dad.
..Note the LSU tiger t-shirt that Kate is wearing. We tried to get her to wear her UT t-shirt since they are playing UCLA tonight, but she insisted on wearing her "lion shirt". Thanks Nana...I am sure I had the only toddler in Knoxville today wearing LSU purple. We tried to bala
nce her out with Owen and Angela in Orange (just to be fair I had on a UMR shirt and not a UT shirt). Owen looked like he was ready to start at center for the Vols tonight. That's my boy...
