You and Liam deserve an answer but Wal-Mart is not the place. So let's go to the food court and take a little time out." Reluctantly Kori agreed and Liam just looked happy to go get a drink. We sat and I said . . . "Kori I can see that maybe you just turned 12 but you see things not with just your eyes but with your heart as well. Let's finishing shopping and I will try thinking more about what you guys are wearing now and we can worry about dressing you for Yale in a few more years." Kori responded with a smile and thumbs up. Liam, well Liam was just happy with all the new clothes, but he did have that look. So it was back to the shirts, sweaters and a fall wind breaker. A compromise 2 button down dress shirts and 3 nice polo shirts; I just bought new backpacks in June but we need new backpacks for school. We need or we want? I looked at Kori and Liam and asked . . . "are you sure you want "new" backpacks? The ones I bought in June look like you had a fun summer but if you want those new ones . . ." Well all of a sudden they decided the ones they have told `war' stories. So I could see their brains as they thought of all the stories they could tell. Liam looked at me and said . . . "You know Jake we had a pretty fun summer. We been camping, canoeing, zip lining, we been to Yale and best was skinny dipping." Oh maybe I need to tell them that might not be something to be telling everyone about. Kori was hiding his laugh and said . . . "Yep Jake that skinning dipping was just the most fun especially swimming through the legs part." I instantly turned red and Kori being the kind and sweet boy he is began talking a little louder about it. Grrrrrrrrrr! We finished our shopping and on the way home we stopped at Circle K, Subway, for subs and headed home. With everything unloaded we sat on the porch and ate our subs and talked. ................ I said . . . "Kori, Liam when we were shopping and I said about not looking like you just finished milking the cows I really didn't mean to poke fun at the farmers. And I was't judging people by how they dress but Kori you did have a point and you did make me think. So why did it upset you like that?" Liam sat quietly and looked at Kori as Kori said . . . "Jake do you remember when you first saw me and the first time you brought Liam home? "Yes" I said. He continued . . . "Those were probably the best clothes I had. You see the kids I play with at school and how about Peter he doesn't have much and that is why he loves coming over here and to go with Neil. ................ I guess I never really thought about Peter and his home life; I just love Peter for who he is. Kori went on . . . "Jake you know they are all my friends and we play and have fun together. I don't want to look better than them cause they will think I have changed but I'm not I'm just me and I wanna keep my friends." I looked at Kori and Liam and said . . . "You're right clothes don't make the person it's what's inside that is important." Why don't you call Peter, Garret and Riku and have a sleepover tonight. The boys thought that was a great idea. Kori was on the phone in 2 minutes and the house will be full tonight. It appears I still have a lot to learn. Should be a fun night and I bet it will get interesting. We saddled Eric, Dusty and Finley and spent two hours riding through the upper, lower and out the new gate to the old apple orchard. It was nice to see Kori smiling again. Now Liam has learned so much this summer he just looks natural on Finley. Kori was supposed to be the first to ride Finley but with Liam weighing less we were able to start Finley earlier under saddle. The apples look real good I think when all the gang gets here we will bring baskets and the truck. Five o'clock and the crew have arrived. It was pretty much a free for all with the chatter and I was happy to see and hear the excitement. The boys were all talking about the start of school next week. Everything got very quiet and there was a lot of whispering and giggling. Hmmm it always makes me think their talking naughty stuff. You see where my mind goes? We were loading the truck with a few baskets when I spotted Peter with his hand on Garrets posterior, Ok butt, and he wasn't helping Garret up in the back of the truck either. Did I just see Garret feel the front of Peter's shorts? Nah couldn't be; or could it? I think I am seeing things and my imagination is in over-horny-drive. "Ok if you were here with Kori, Peter, Garret, `Riku', and Liam I bet you'd be adjusting your shorts too." We were just about to leave for the orchard when "Liam" needs to pee. His timing is impeccable but he's quick because Kori says he has a short tube. The boys are all screaming and here he comes laughing all the way saying . . . "It ain't funny I didn't wanna pee my pants." Oh Liam I love you so much, I thought. I parked just a little way in on the road to the orchard. The boys were out and we first picked all the good apples from the ground. Yes they ate a few and were laughing about Peter eating a worm and that's why he's so horny. Kids. It didn't take long before it was an all out brawl and Liam was on top. Now mind you sometimes he takes a licking but he keeps on ticking. At home I look at his photo and see the big smile and I smile too. I can't wait till tonight and watch a movie and I get to just hold him, I hope. Like I've said before you just never know with Liam, he may want to be sweet or he may wanna to fight. Now tonight Kori has the crew and judging by what they are doing now . . . . . . . it's gonna be a hot time in the old town tonight. Ok I'll admit it when I was that age I did the same things with my friends; especially when we were swimming. We had 3 large baskets of apples and they will go in the cellar to stay cold. We can eat some and Finley, Eric, and Dusty < if I have Dusty. I need to talk to the Neil again about Dusty. The boys all decided to play horseshoes and Liam just wanted to play X-box. I know the boys all think of Liam as equal and they protect him like crazy but he feels left out sometimes just because of his age. Liam came up on the porch and sat in my lap for a few minutes and I asked . . . "Hey what's for supper? Pizza? Burgers? Hot Dogs? What would you like Liam we can make your choice." He took off running and was back in a minute. He went to ask the boys, didn't think of just himself, and I couldn't believe what they wanted. ............. Now I have to go to the store and get 2 ½ pounds of ground beef because they want "Shepherds' Pie". Now the meat market is just down the street, do I go and leave the boys, or do I make them go with me? Ahhhhh I decided, I called the boys over and said . . . "Ok I have to run to the store and I trust you will all be good. Now take a good look at Liam ...... I'm serious, he better look just like this when I get back." They all laughed and then I said . . . "You all love Liam so take care of him and Kori he's your brother" . . . . I had never said that, and Kori looked so proud. Then I called Peter over to me . . . I grabbed him and gave him a . . . big kiss on the cheek and they all cracked up. I told Peter to protect Kori, as he was trying to wipe it off, as if he didn't enjoy it. It was a quick trip and in 15 minutes I was back walked around to the back porch and ...................... I panicked . . . Riku was on the ground and his arm was covered in blood . . . . I ran to him just as he started to laugh! Those little bastards had watered down ketchup and poured it on his arm and it did look like blood, fresh red running blood. I'm gonna kill em. Ahhhhh ha! They want Shepherds' pie then they have to make it. I called the boys and said on the table is a note pad with all the instructions to make dinner. Everyone go wash hands and make dinner I will watch TV. I hear Garret say . . . "Peter let's take a shower" I heard that.. NO! Shower Garret just wash hands; wash other "things" tonight. The boys were all laughing and I could hear Kori saying . . . "the measuring cup is in the third drawer, no not that much salt just a teaspoon not a tablespoon. I was really enjoying it and had to peek in, hmmm everyone was helping and there wasn't any real mess. I did see Riku as he felt the front of Kori's shorts and I don't think it was part of the directions. Now Kori being Kori looked at Riku and said . . . No, no not till later tonight. I started to laugh and was busted. The boys looked at me and started to laugh and Peter said . . . "A spy, better sleep with one open tonight Jake" Oh Geeez, one of me and 5 of them. Now 5 of them in bed with me tonight being warm and cuddly, yep I could handle that. Now 5 on the bed attacking me that is a different story and it really sounds like what Peter has in mind. I will say it might be fun. I watched for a while and listened to the conversation as Kori was telling the boys about London. Yes I had the boys start researching some things we may get to see. He started to tell them about the tube, well the boys all giggled and of course you know what they were thinking "tube" hmmm horny little minds. He said he wanted to see that big Ferris wheel . . . "they call the London Eye it's on the South Bank of the River Thames in London. It's Europe's tallest Ferris wheel." I was amazed at Kori he is actually doing what I asked and then I heard Liam . . . "Yep and you know what? It's the most popular thing in England, has tons of visitors like millions even." I gave the boys a Lenovo Flex 11 and that was good money spent. Ok so why should I worry about these two kids, their fine. Well I see we are at the mashing point and now Riku and Liam have everything in the big bowl and are mashing everything together. I think they lost count of the number of eggs that looked like a lot to me. Oh well it is all in the oven now. Riku and Liam need clean clothes. I told Liam to put on clean clothes and I would wash Riku's shirt. Kori gave Riku one of his shirts and the boys all went to play the X-box ABZU. I now have an hour to just relax. I made an ice tea and just sat on the porch and soon it turned into relaxing with Liam on my lap. He looked ok but I had to ask . . . "Liam what's up kiddo?" "Nothing I just wanted to be with you." He was Ok and just being Liam, kinda like when he takes my hand. Liam sat with me till the Shepherds' Pie was screaming to come out of the oven. We went in took the pie out and let it sit for a few minutes while I told the boys to wash for dinner. They all were clean and hungry, no make that starved. I can plainly see they have all lost 20 pounds playing that game. *Now get this* . . . . Peter's first words . . . "Jake where's the garlic bread?" I replied . . . "Thank you so much Peter, I am so happy you like the pie would you like me to make some garlic bread too?"
