i'm ready for that vacation to new jersey now, but i've had a great time getting that way. the kids had a blast this weekend. sara has been so sweet, and josh spent the night with uncle steve and brandon..and the x-box. that kid is so smart. i talked with his dad and we discussed how gifted he is. apparently, the school wants to move him up a couple of grades, but jeremy doesn't want that just yet. and i can't blame him, really. hard to believe he's only 7.
he told me - you're not like a grandma. and i was getting a little bit upset that he would feel that way until he told me - grandma's are supposed to be slow. you beat my high score on pin ball!
and so, my weekend is almost over now. the house isn't quite a wreck, but it was worth everything i didn't get done to spend some time with the children. i remember what it was like to be a mom all those years ago when my own were small.
only now, it's better, because i can take off at a moment's notice or plan for a vacation in new jersey or have coffee at the picnic table and still give as much as is needed of me.
