Reagan's end of the year pizza party was today. She normally acts as if she could care less that I'm at one of her parties. Today was really no different, however, out of the blue this afternoon, she hugged me and said, "I was so happy to see you at my pizza party today!"
I was so happy to see you at your pizza party today, my Sweet Girl!
Addison's Field Day was a few weeks ago. It was supposed to be on a Friday, but, at the last minute, was moved to the following Tuesday for fear of thunderstorms. That meant, I was late and had to leave early. I was late since I had to drop Libby off at preschool and I had to leave early because Levi has to eat lunch and get a good nap in before 1:30 on Tuesdays. We leave at 1:40 to pick Libby up, come home for about 45 minutes to wait for Addi to get home, and then leave for the girls' gymnastics classes. It's way too late after gymnastics for him to nap and I've tried letting him go without a nap. We spent the hour in the car and I might have cried the entire drive home! All that blah, blah, blah was to explain why I don't have many pictures. These, with a couple whole-class pictures are truly all I took.
Then it was her turn!
No time for pictures or many words today.
I just opened our front door and a little boy, probably about 4, was standing near his bike parked on the sidewalk across the street. His mom told him to get back on and start pedaling, but he yelled, "First I have to scare the rabbit!
It made me laugh. I might have ignored it or even felt sorry for the poor rabbit before I had Levi. But, now, I'm that mom. I have seen my boy chase a rabbit down the street roaring loudly the whole way. It's just in him to act that way and it's just in me to love him all the more when he does.
