My day with Zane
posted Tuesday, April 25, 2006 :: 7:39 AM
There was another death in my daughters family last week, two in one
month - her grandmother and his grandfather. It has been a hard month
for them both. The funeral was yesterday, in a city of some distance
away. I took care of Zane all day, from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. He is a
happy, fun, mischievious bundle of non-stop energy. Obviously I didnt
get anything done, LOL. Except swinging, and running, and tossing
balls, and making lunch, and cleaning up, and making snacks, and
cleaning up, and reading books, and watching Finding Nemo, and napping,
and running some more.
Looking at it that way, I need to correct myself. All the important
things got done, LOL. The laundry will still be here today, filling
orders will still be here today, and making jam will still be here
today. But Zane will only be 22 and 3/4 months old once in his life,
and I got to spend a day with him at that moment. It was a wonderful
day, even if I am a bit sore and slow-moving today, LOL. (How I did
this every day when my three were toddlers, I do not know. This is why
we have our children when we are young, LOL.)
