Today is February 3, 2011. You and I have been together every hour the whole week. It has been freezing all week, school was canceled and there is a sheet of ice over Dallas. It's all crazy because it was 75 and sunny just 5 days ago. The weather here is nuts. I thought the weather was crazy in Oklahoma, but I am finding out, it is nuts here too. Hot one day, freezing the next. We have had a fun week. It has been challenging at times because we've been stuck in the house. I have cabin fever. We have not been able to get out much and you tire Mommy out. I am your playmate. You say, "Mommy, come play" all day. If I am not playing with you, you say, "I need a friend." Oh, it breaks my heart. I love love love playing with you and spending so much time with you, but I need more breaks than you. You are a robot. You go non stop. You have so much energy my love. You wake up ready to go. It's no wonder I am so skinny! We have spent a lot of time in your music room, listening to music, playing guitars, banging on drums. We have listened to U2, the Black Eyed Peas, Michael Jackson, Enrique Iglesias, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Coldplay, Lady Antebellum, Justin Bieber and various other artists. We bundled up and played in the back yard - we broke ice cycles, dug for dinosaur bones, played pirates and chopped up the ice. We ate lunch at the Highland Park Pharmacy two days in a row. You got bouncy balls and gum balls, your favorite thing to get there. We really needed to get out of the house.
I told you that I really wanted the sun to come out so that it would be a little warmer. You said, "Why Mommy? It's the winter time. It's suppose to be cold." You said this to me! How smart are you? You are only 2 yrs and 10 mos old. How do you know how to say all this? Using the word "suppose" and telling me what winter is like. You fascinate me. You smart, smart boy.
Tonight, I needed a little break and I really wanted to go to yoga. So, We went to the gym. The gym has a kid's play area where you can stay while I workout. You were not happy. You cried and you were mad. You did not want to stay in there. I felt so bad, but I knew you would be OK. I came to get you after yoga and the girl that worked there said you were fine right after I left. She did say you wouldn't take your coat off and you kept saying, "Mamma is going to be right back." You sweet, precious baby! I always tell you that I am never far away, that I will always always be there to take care of you and that I am always close by. This will always be the case my love.
After bath time tonight, you were singing a song, and I said, "You are a beautiful boy," and you said, "You are a beautiful girl, Mamma." OH GOD! I love you. You are my heart and soul. xoxo Mamma
The ground was covered in ice and you were taking the shovel and breaking it apart. You said you were digging for dinosaur bones.
