KEEPING UP WITH A 6 YR. OLD
WELL, MY DAUGHTER CAME DOWN WED. WITH 2 GRANDKIDS AND LEFT WITH 1 ON THURSDAY. SHE RELUCTANTLY LEFT THE 6 YEAR OLD HERE, AND LET ME TELL YOU, MY WIFE AND I ARE POOPED.
BLUEBERRY PICKING, A STROLL THRU THE OUTSIDE MALL (A STOP AT THE TOY STORE), DAYS AT THE BEACH, DINNERS, BACK TO ANOTHER BEACH WITH A PLAYGROUND FOR BEN AND A CHANCE TO WATCH THE SUNSET, OFF TO DAIRY QUEEN, PLAYING INSIDE, TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH HIM, AND JUST HAVING FUN.
LAST NIGHT, I WAS ON THE COMPUTER AT 9:30 PM, AND HE CAME INTO THE ROOM TO ANNOUNCE HE WAS TIRED AND WOULD I LEAVE THE ROOM SO HE COULD GO TO SLEEP.
TODAY AT NOON WE RETURNED HIM TO HIS RIGHTFUL OWNERS. WE DID A LITTLE SHOPPING ON THE WAY HOME AND ARRIVED AT 4:00. BY 4:02, MY WIFE WAS SOUND ASLEEP AND I WASN'T FAR BEHIND.
HE WANTS TO COME BACK SOON, A GOOD SIGN HE WASN'T MISTREATED. OUR RECOVERY HOWEVER, MAY TAKE A WHILE. NO NAPS FOR 2 DAYS JUST ABOUT DID ME IN, BUT I KEPT UP.
WHAT A GREAT TWO AND ONE HALF DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
