Grant is thisclose to walking. He wants to do it. He will stand at a table, and stttrrrreeeech his arm out behind him and then sit down. It is right around the corner. so is his birthday. I love celebrating these boys. I have changed my ways with this party though, I will not be rushing around last minute buying everything in sight! Pinterest has helped, too!
We had our first T-ball game last night. It was sad. Preston has been testing us lately, and he decided not to eat his dinner last night. He didn't get to play. He had to sit on the blanket and watch everyone else. My heart broke for him, and I wanted to scoop him up and make it okay, as he sat at the table and cried because he couldn't play. He is trying so hard to push the line of acceptable behavior, and we are working hard to stand our ground.
Hopefully we find a balance soon.
We did have a good time earlier in the afternoon. The Wall That Heals rolled pass our town last night. I found out that they would have an entrance like no other, so I loaded the boys up and we sat in the back of the car with our flags, and waited. It was worth it. We watched a full seven minutes of motorcycles beep, wave, salute as they roared by. Both boys sat in awe. Preston is looking forward to going to see this mini replica of the real deal. His grandad is going to take him, and hopefully teach him a little bit about what The Wall means, and why it is so important. He should know, he was there.
On a lighter note, we have been blessed with some warm days. We filled the kiddie pool, and Preston did his best to to convince Grant that he wanted to join him.
Grant is a smartie, and stayed skeptical.
