Groovy Tuesday

I don't know if you can ever really thank people for certain gifts, but I'd like to thank my wonderful and supportive husband for this amazing gift of hearts and time. If I wanted to 'work,' I'm sure he'd support that, too, but days like these remind my how lucky I am to be momming these two little guys.

Yesterday in preschool, they did this story you may remember from camp or preschool or whereever:

'We're going on a bear hunt, We're gonna catch a big one, What a beautiful day, We're not scared!! Oh No!! A forest, A deep dark forest, We can't go over it, We can't go under it, Oh no! We'll have to go through it! Stumble trip, stumble trip....'

Well, Jack was a little scared for some reason and mentioned it a few times. He woke up crying and talking about being brave, then he says "I didn't like it. I hope SAM liked it." It doesn't translate as well in type, but he was thinking about his sweet friend Sam and hoping that he liked the story, even if it was a little scary to Jack.

Today at the store, I finally broke down and bought them these Eric Carle bears, and they commensed to giving them big squeeze hugs :wub:
Then we went to a kids' activity at the mall. A pizza restaurant gave the kids books and pizza boxes to draw their own creations.....

Jack takes art VERY seriously....

while Harry's just there for the pizza (cheese up, dude!)


Later, we stopped by the fish pond so Harry The Fish Whisperer could work his magic

Jack seemed to attract a few of them despite his serious pose

and the nice ladies at the shoe store gave them balloons that brings me to this last picture of childhood bliss - enjoy your days, and thank you, Dean, for giving me these wonderful times <3

Smithereens - last line "I know that nothing last" sort of fits my mood sof trying to enjoy these moments
