Friday Thoughts

Today is Friday and I'm missing my boys while I'm at work! Mason didn't want to go to his class this morning. He told me, "Mom I WANT (which really means I don't want but you don't say "don't") to go to Rockin' Raiders. I want to go be Mini Matador today." I stated that big kids didn't belong in there with the little babies like Owie. After waiting outside while I went in & signed you in & put your lunchbox in your cubby...you decided it might be ok. I hate leaving you when you feel like that! Seeing your sad face & hearing those words from your sad voice breaks my heart. It is almost worse than when Owen cries as I leave. At least I know someone will hold Owen & he'll be ok. Don't get me wrong...they love on you, Mason, too but it isn't the same. When I talk to Daddy about it, he reminds me that we all have to do things (like go to work everyday) that we don't always want to do. So, this is just a little lesson in life! I'm sure that after you go get engaged & busy your thoughts change. Anyway, this afternoon, I'm picking you boys up early today & we're going to Gainesville to meet B-Daddy, Nana & Jinna. I can't wait to get y'all. Work is dragging by! Tomorrow is a birthday party for Donna Shaver so the gals are headed to that & you guys are going to hang out at the hotel...or maybe the park or zoo! I'm going to try to talk B-Daddy into that! Even if you don't go in the morning, I'm going to try to take you myself while we're there. It is a pretty cool place that Mason would LOVE! Owen doesn't care about things like that yet, but he will one day all too soon! Daddy is hunting Dove in Snyder with some friends so he won't be with us. We'll miss him, but we'll see him tomorrow night when we all meet back up at home. You, my boys, are most precious to us and I love you more each day.
