It has been an ideal weekend in many ways. I spent lots of time with the kiddies. Managed to steal two naps in as many days. Worked in the garden some and visited family for some food and a relaxing social time.
My kids, in case you haven't heard, are the smartest and most loving little things ever made. I get comments like, "I love you, daddy" out of the blue. Sometimes, when I am carrying the boy (now seven), I think back to when he was a toddler and so easy to cuddle and wax nostalgic for those days.
The girl is feisty, smart as whip and tries hard to bend us to her wishes. Showing me a hang nail and saying she needs a Dora band-aid for it, is a favourite excuse to keep herself from going to sleep. Asking to have just one more book read to her and then reneging and asking for "just one more okay, daddy?"
And the wife, in all her permutations is, how you English people say, 'a keeper.'
Le sigh...
