Sam's afternoon with Uncle Joe

Uncle Joe and Sam went for tux fittings (Sam is the ring bearer) and then went out to dinner.  Uncle Joe told me that while they were getting fitted, Sam kept calling the salesgirl "woman!"  Uncle Joe had to teach Sam to say "Miss".
On the way home, Uncle Joe said he would drop Sam off at home.  Sam said "but Mom gave me money for dinner."  Uncle Joe: "yes, but we got done early so I can just take you home."  Sam: "yes, but if we go out to eat we'll have more time together."  Uncle Joe: "what's more important-more time together or eating out?"  Sam: "Both!"
At the restaurant, Uncle Joe asks Sam if he wants to sit at a table or at the counter.  Of course Sam wants to sit at the counter.  He's never done that before!
Sam told Uncle Joe that he wanted "green pop" (which is our term for "Sprite" or 7-Up)...Uncle Joe proceeds to order Sam Mountain Dew!!!  and then let Sam get a refill....Mommy says to Uncle Joe (who has no children) "For future reference, NEVER give a 7yo Mountain Dew, esp. 2 glasses, esp. on a school night!" 
Lastly, Uncle Joe taught Sam to tip the waitress, since he was spending Mommy's money!
Needless to say, Sam thinks tonight was the best night EVER!
