Me:  Hughes, what should we get Dad for Father's Day?
Hughes:  maybe a new pencil
Me:  oh, that would be nice
Hughes:  or maybe a new football?
Me:  ohhhhh
Hughes:  Oh, I know.  How about an Auburn tiger shirt?  (I just smile because I know David would flip that even his sons want to get him AU stuff and not Clemson - running joke in the Turberville family - the first couple of Christmases David got Auburn gear from my family)
Me:  Well, maybe we should get him clothes.
Hughes:  Why?
Me:  because Dad is graduating from law school next year and he'll need to wear nice clothes every day
Hughes:  oh, so we'll get him fancy clothes

Banks wants to get him either a dinosaur or Batman.  Somehow I think he's not comprehending the full idea about gift giving.
Why is my mind going completely blank for this Father's Day?
