Today

Today was a fun, laid back day. This morning, our swim lesson was cancelled so we headed to Carrie's a little early. Let me just tell ya that a real friend has you and your Little over for a play date before 9 a.m. We had a ball watching the kids play and of course Carrie and I had a lot of catching up to do. Oh, and beach planning. :) So excited about spending a week at the beach with the Ingrams! I know a little boy who is going to be in hog heaven with lots of friends to play with! So after we wrecked her house, we came home to what I thought would be a nice quiet nap. Not so much. The air conditioner guy was banging around so I think Webb slept maybe a solid hour . . . a far cry from his usual 3. We had a long afternoon ahead of us so I got the baby pool out, plopped it in the shade, turned the hose on full blast, and Webb went to town entertaining me with splashing and sliding around the pool. We talked and laughed, and shooed lots of mosquitos. We then got ready and went to eat dinner and then we got ice cream. The best news of the day is that while I ran to the grocery, someone pooped in the potty TWICE without any help. When Chris texted me, I immediately began searching the grocery for some little treat for him. He ended up with a Bob the Builder juice cup. Juice is definitely a treat around here! I spent the rest of my evening chatting with my dear friend M.B. in her living room. I'm going to bed tonight remembering that the best things in life are sweet friends, precious children, and true, real relationships with people you can count on with your life. So thankful for these blessings . . .

 

I must say, however, that out of all the blessings, this brown-eyed boy is at the top of the list. What a sweet boy he is becoming.
