Friday's Letters

DearReaders
Sorry I’ve been MIA. Things have been super busy at work. By the time I get home, clean a little, laundry, take care of Jack, cook supper, and play a round of candy crush I am exhausted. I use to do my blogging from 4:30-5:30 but Jack isn’t napping during that time anymore. Now I have about 30 minutes to run around and get as much done as possible for he wakes up.
Dear Left Ear,
Can you not seriously let me hear out of you? You are on my nerves. You pop and whistle like you are at the club but then NOTHING. I’m tired of saying “what?” all the time. Most of the time I just act like I know what they are saying by nodding my head and smiling. I just keep my fingers crossed that I do not need to be shaking my head and frowning.
Dear Husband,
Finals are next week and I know you are stressing but you got this. You are tied for the highest grade in the class so I have no worries that you will be just fine. Listening to you teach me about hearts is very educational. Although I have no idea what you are talking about I try to go along with it.
Dear Jack,
You are 4 days away from being half a year old! I am loving this time with you right now. You are so full of joy. Even the simplest of things brings you to smiles which in turn makes my heart so happy. You are starting to sit up better. You love your Johnny Jumper. You don’t really jump in it much but you like to spin around.
Dear Summer,
I’m coming for you and when I get to you I’m gonna savor you up like piece of Copeland’s White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake. I can’t wait to take my time with you. Unfolding all you have to offer me. I have never needed this summer more than I need this one.
I hope everyone has a great weekend. The husband has clinical and I need to do some online workshop stuff so a pretty boring weekend but sometimes boring weekends can be just the right thing. I’ll jazz it up with some cake, Redbox, naps, and lounging.

Maybe a Boy Isn't so Bad

Although I love Jack to pieces, I always sorta wished he was a girl. Girls have tutus and bows. Yesterday my mind was changed. My friend invited me to her son's baseball game. Oh what a treat! It was so entertaining. It made me wish for days of games and shirts that say Jack's mom. Money being spent on Gatorade and pickles. Afternoons of rushing around and pizza suppers. I can't wait!
Jack and I had a great time! He even clapped his hands for the first time. Of course I took lots of pictures. It was so enjoyable that I plan on going again. Now getting the stroller situated wasn't a breeze but well worth it.
I'm starting to think a boy isn't so bad. For all of you with boys....what is the best part of having a boy?
