You woke up at 7:30a and asked me if you have school today. I said no & you said, oh yeah, I have tennis today so it’s a home day. We got ready and headed out. You were excited to see Coach. We hadn’t seen him in almost 3 months! His Mom was sick and passed away, then when he got back there was lots of rain and then we were busy a few weekends in a row. You picked right back up – you lost nothing on your swing. Your stamina however did drop. You were hot & sweaty and Coach kept toweling you off. You got a little mopey for a minute then recovered nicely and finished strong.
We went home, made breakfast and headed to the pool. There were more kids at the Meadows pool today than ever before. We saw Ms. Michelle & her boys & she taught us to play Mr. Fox pool game. Some kids had some Luca toys & shared with you. You were sooo happy. Unfortunately, their Mom told us they got them at McDonalds. Of course, we don’t go there & I had no idea they had them. So now I’m on a mad hunt to find them!!!
We finished swimming & headed home to shower so we could meet Grandma Noot for dinner. She brought you another gift 🙂 you got a flamingo cup. We tried to take her by the new house to see the progress, but a bad thunderstorm rolled in. You questioned Daddy about the safety of driving in the lightning and if we could get struck by lightning in the car. He got us home safely. We watched a little bit of Ice Age and then when I called time, you turned the TV off and headed straight to bed. I was so proud of you. We read at least 6 Dr. Seuss books. You were snuggled right up with me and called out sight words as you found them. All of a sudden, you said, “Mom, I’m going to close my eyes. Can you please tell me when you turn the page?” I promised you I would and kissed your forehead as you drifted off to sleep by 8:30p.
I love you so much!
