I sat down to write this an hour and a half ago. I have not been able to stay awake enough to get it even started and have tried several things to try and rouse my faculties. Maybe it is just time for me to call it a day and get some sleep.
Had a fabulous little walk to school with Andy this morning. We talked about what day it was and that he had 2 days until his birthday. He is pretty excited about that. I am too. I need to figure out what we are going to do but we will get that done. I marvel that he is turning 6 years old. Can he really be 6 already? Yep, really. He is such a wonderful boy, a little feisty and a bit headstrong right now but wonderful.
Tonight doing homework with Jack we had a tender little moment. Jack talked about being 18 years old in 10 years. He then talked about how he will be an adult then. In that conversation Jack shared that one day he will be a father just like me. I replied that I will then be a grandfather. He looked me square in the eye and said "You will always be my father". We both were a little emotional and it was a very tender moment. Glad to have a tender moment in the middle of working through the hell that can be homework.
Natty - special moments? They all are.
Grateful for these wonderful kids in my life.
