Simple things in life are often right in front of us, but because we are so pre-occupied we miss the chance to embrace them. The neatest thing has happened between our guy and me. I have found the greatest joy making him breakfast. He has grown a penchant for pancakes and now french toast. It is the sweetest thing in the world to ask him what he wants and the glint in his eye when he says french toast or pancakes. We chat while I cook and he sits at the bar. It has become our own little routine. He savors every bite, its a joy to watch. We chat about stuff. Nothing earth shattering or important, just stuff. With school starting, these moments will probably be limited to weekends, but I will take them, we only have him for 10 months.
He has been here a full week now and it keeps getting better.
He dresses for his first American Football game tonight, at all places....CB West. I can't imagine what a rush it will be to run out on the field with all the fans, cheerleaders, and other players. He has only been practicing two days and he still seems to love it. What a kid. The fact that he is on the sidelines means no valium for me, but I can't wait to see him all suited up. I REALLY wish I had a longer lense on my camera to capture him as best as I can. I will be that complete moron parent cheering and taking pictures......gotta capture these first moments....lest we forget the sweetness of them.
