Jack & Theo go to Bonkers

So we had a friend who was visiting from Chicago and then they went back to Chicago and left their six-year-old with his Grandma in Columbia for a few days. The Grandma called and asked if Jack and Theo would like to go to Bonkers (an indoor playhouse) with her grandson. They were thrilled with the idea.

She made it very clear that it was going to be her treat so I prompted the boys before they left to make sure they used excellent manners and to thank her for being so generous in asking and taking them. Both boys took this advice to heart, here's how (you see their personality in full view here):

Theo walked straight out to the car and very quickly and boldly said, 'Hello Mrs. Miedema. My name is Theo. Thanks for taking me to Bonkers."

Jack instead wanted to be prepared. Preparation is key to Jack. So he took it upon himself while he was at his rest time to write out this note to keep in his pocket. He just wanted to make sure he remembered her name in case he needed to address her while they were there. He is too funny. Here is the notecard he carried in his pocket the whole time they were at Bonkers:
