Sorry that I have to be the one to tell you all this. But Chase is the "winner" of the priceless poster you see him proudly standing next to.

See about two months ago I took Chase to our local drive-thru Checkers. He got a kids meal and I probably got some fries smothered in cheese and bacon and ranch and a banana shake cause I don't care about my health at all.

Anyway to get back to the priceless poster that he "won"... On his kids meal bag was an entry form. For a trip to "Space Camp". This has been a dream of his for like five minutes so when we got home I filled out the entry form and actually mailed it in the next day.

Then we moved.

And I thought his Space Camp dreams would be crushed forever.

But alas, We received an envelope in the mail at the new house from Rally's/Checker's. Could it be the ticket to Space Camp? I called all the boys into the kitchen and we all waited as Chase tried to figure out how to open an envelope (He's only three people, com'on)

We waited and gave directions without helping him. He finally got the contraption open and... and... Yay, Chase is a winner of a poster.
A priceless poster at that.

A poster of a robot that, if he had gotten to go to Space Camp he could have met in person and had him bring him a coke or something. But Chase is a winner and I made sure to make a really big deal out of it and we hung it in his room and everyone that has come over to the house has gotten a grand tour of the priceless poster.

Yes, Chase is a winner.

He loves his poster and he knows it means a lot to me that he's a winner. So much so that one day this past weekend, he got mad at me for not letting him have a popsicle right before lunch (homemade this time) that he tore his poster off the wall and brought it to me and said "I'm not a winner".

I gave him the popsicle and we hung his poster back up in his room.
