Love

The boys and I have been having some serious fun lately.  Sunday afternoon Jon had to work so I took Garrison to see The PEANUTS movie.  It was one of the few G rated movies out there.  Jon and I made a conscious decision a while ago that he would only watch G rated movies right now.  This is his 2nd movie he has ever been to (first was Rio during the summer).  We had a lot of fun and it was a good mommy/son date.  Today we met Charles and Colin at the mall.  We had fun riding the train, rides, and carousel.  We all ate together.  I promised the boys a trip to Build a Bear.  Both boys picked the doggie (Snoopy).  This morning before we left was a rough mommy morning for me.  I lost my temper as I was on the phone trying to find Flu Mist for Garrison (on back order all over town).  It was not one of my better mommy moments.  I felt terrible for losing my temper and for the tired feelings I was having as a mom.  I hope my boys know that I'm not perfect and I will make mistakes but I love them and love being their mom.  I apologized to Garrison and he didn't really understand I did anything wrong.  I hope the boys always know and feel completely loved by me.  They probably won't remember going to get Snoopy dogs but I want them to feel complete love from me.  I love them whole heartedly

love them whole heartedly.

Halloween

This is such a fun time to be a kid.  The boys had so much fun dressing up for Halloween aND carVing their pumpkin.  Garrison wanted to be a veterinarian and Sullivan was a pirate.  We had a blast.  They got to wear their costumes to a fall festival and on Halloween.  Their picture was in the paper from the festival.







 We went to Nancy's house on Halloween this year.  We painted pumpkins, ate good food and trick or treated
  It was a lot of fun.
