Part Time


This weekend John took Wyatt and Sam to Michigan to visit Grand Haven and I stayed home with Jonah and Shane. Jonah loved the one-on-one time with Mom. Usually he pretends that Shane doesn't exist and this weekend wasn't much different except that occasionally when he was bored he gave Shane a slight nod as if to say "we better enjoy it while we can because they are bound to come back sometime"! He only asked about Sammy when he got into bed and realized that he had to sleep by himself. The rest of the weekend Jonah basked in the spotlight sucking up every moment of Mom time that he could squeeze in. It was wonderful!
I took the two boys shopping until we all dropped every day. It is so much easier to shop with two kids than four. We shopped for Wyatt's birthday presents, running socks, groceries, school clothes for Wyatt, and fresh produce at the farmer's market. I even spoiled Jonah today and got him a strawberry and cream frozen ice drink from Starbucks complete with whipped cream on the top and topped it off with a cookie from Giant Eagle! He went to bed smiling from ear to ear. Everybody will be back together Monday night, and even though Jonah and I might be a little sad that we have to share each other, we miss the other half of our team and can't wait to see them!
