Jacob was really looking forward to April Fool's Day this year. A few weeks ago he heard of a good prank to pull on someone and asked me if he could pull it on his dad. I gave him permission and he has waited patiently (for a six year old) for April 1st to come.
While Nato was at work that day Jacob went into the bathroom and took the bar of soap out of the tub and hid it under the sink. When Nato came home after his afternoon physical training session he of course went straight to take a shower. He was a little confused about his missing soap, but since Jacob had not removed my bar of soap he was still able to cleanse himself, but when he asked me about it I just referred him to Jacob.
You should have seen the smile on Jacob's face when Nato asked him. You would have thought he had just won the Nobel Prize or something. He was so happy to "get" dad and Nato really hammed it up once he caught on to things so Jacob felt really good about himself.
The best came later that night when Nato removed Jacob's soap. It was hilarious to see Jacob's reaction. He just laughed and laughed because dad "got" him. Everyone was good sports through it all and that made it fun!

That is too too funny! And I can't believe how much older they look already (since December!) Hope you guys are enjoying your new place!
So cute! I can't believe how big he is to want to do an April Fools joke.
To answer your question, the hop back from Hawaii was just as easy, but Sam got us on the list the day we got there, so by the time we wanted to come home, we were able to get on the first flight we tried on. The other trick is we did it on the off season, Joe Erbe told us to never try a hop during spring break or the busy summer season. It turned out he was right! It actually was hard with little kids trying to get in all the naps, but hey, it was worth it!
Way to go Jacob!!!! Your dad always needs more pranks played on him. I am sure he could teach you a thing or two. You made me laugh. You are one funny kid. We miss you a ton.
