Single Parent Pros and Cons

My mom is out of town.  Lately she has had to go away a lot.  I miss her.  It's sad not to have her here.

But, the good thing is that when one of my parents is gone, I usually get to stay up late and watch movies with the other parent who is at home.  Tonight I got to stay up and watch The Wizard of Oz with my dad.  I'd never seen that movie before.  It was awesome.

Sometimes also when one of your parents is gone, the other one will do something special with you.  Like last night, my dad took me to Asuka for sushi!  Yum.

Try to convince your parents to let you do these things if one of them goes out of town for work.
