Earlier this summer we enjoyed a cookout with friends where you seemed to be a bit of a loner. Wanting to do your own thing rather than play with the other kids. Nothing wrong with that at all.
Tonight, though, was a different story.
From the moment we arrived to the time we left, you played with the other kids.
You joined Keelie and the other kids in her room playing, you joined them outside on the swing set and in the playhouse and even ran around the yard.
Mom and I were very happy to see you come out of your shell and join the other kids.
Judging by the pic above, you've already learned an important life lesson - the fastest way between two points is a straight line. Why bother wasting time going to the ladder when you can just turn right around and climb back up?
Efficient, saves time, and therefore allows for more slides.
Once the sun went down it was time to enjoy the bonfire.
After a long afternoon of playing and sitting by the fire we thought you'd crash hard on the way home. We feared this because we didn't bring PJs and ran out of pullups earlier in the evening.
Luckily for us, you had your singing Mickey. Over and over we heard nursery rhymes and lullabies. Even with your head down and eyes seemingly closed, you had your wits about you enough to keep pressing that button.
As much as we wanted to drown out the tunes with the radio, we listened. The whole way home. You stayed awake long enough to get you home and changed. It wasn't long after that that you were out for the night.
