Dad and I got to watch your tball game tonight and made a date out of it. We dropped the bros off for the first time ever to a drop and play place called Playdates-- they were happy to go and more importantly, you were so so so happy that Dad and I could watch your game with no "screaming whining bros running around".... As you mentioned more than a few times.
You had a great game! You had two singles and a double. You're so fast running those bases and you really can swing that bat! You can also stare into outer space standing there in the outfield and you whistle about 50% of the game but hey- you're in there trying! Paying attention is hard for a 5 year old :)
Tonight, on your way to your room with Ben, I heard you in the hall tell Ben that the two best things ever happened to you today... That you got your mom and your dad all to yourself two different times- at your game first and then at the burger shop.
Way to break Mommy's heart!!!!!!!! Sweetest boy ever.
And I'll also take this time to mention, (since Dad and I have really dropped the ball writing in our blog) - that everyday now for more than a few months, when we're playing outside every afternoon - you always stop what you're doing at some point amidst running around like crazy - and pick mommy a flower. You put it behind your back like its a new surprise everyday and tell me "Mom, this is because I just can't love you enough"...
Where do you come up with these heartwrenchers???? Mommy loves you so much-
You deserve all of our attention all the time - but clearly in our crazy party you all have to share us. Mom and Dad won't take for granted these little minutes we get any of you to ourselves.
Love you to the moon and back Owie-
Mama
