The Girl is headed out later this afternoon to go camping with her Girl Scout troop so it looks like it’ll be just me and The Boy for the weekend. I love it when I have large chunks of time to spend with just one of the kids while the other is away having fun on their own. It lets me concentrate on that one little being and not feel guilty that I may be ignoring the other.
I’ll let him pick where we eat dinner tonight, almost certain that he will pick McDonald’s. He’s growing up so fast and I know that the days where he’ll want to spend time with me hanging out and putzing around are going to soon run short. But for now I’ll relish in his hugs and sticky face kisses.
Have a Big Mac for me!
(not high on the “approved” list for me anymore…)
soak them up and frame them carefully in your memory.
Make some wonderful memories for that boy to look back on later in life as wonderful times spent with his mama.
