Don’t Blink

I expected to have a long blog entry ready to go. I expected to recount the tears and the true horror I experienced. But I have none of that.

Grant went to his first day of preschool yesterday.

And it was easy!!! He was a total "adult" about going to school. He was excited, happy, and social. When it was time for me to leave I got a hug and "I love you mommy." That was it. I hung out in the hall with all the other pathetic moms waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it never did. Grant not only survived but he THRIVED in this new experience and I could not be more shocked and proud at the same time.

Someone at work told me I will blink and I will be dropping him off at college. Yesterday as I walked away from his classroom alone, with tears in my eyes, I was careful not to blink.

Kevin Goes to College

We will miss you so much....have fun and be safe Uncle Kev. And don't forget to visit us soon!

Love- you little buddies Grant and Carter.

Wearing the Pants

In this crazy thing we call marriage, sometimes I win, and sometimes I lose.

Well I won the latest battle. I got to do my bathroom makeover and I LOVE IT. I can't believe I waited this long to make it happen.

Special thanks to Casey for letting me wear the pants on this one.

PS....I kind of like the way they fit...expect me to have them on more often.

Minivan Moments

Let me set the scene. Grant, Carter and I on the way home from Grammy's house today.

Grant: Mommy, why we stopping?

Me: What color is the light?

Grant: Red

Me: What does red mean?

Grant: Stop

Me: And we are in traffic buddy.

Grant: I hate traffic.

Me: Me too buddy

Grant: Yeah mommy. True that.

I LOVE this age!!! Grant is turning 3 in September and he is just so much fun. We have (hopefully) navigated the terrible twos and are smoothly sailing into the KICK ASS threes!! Grant I know you are going to become a big boy one day but I hope you never lose your goof ball personality!
