Happy Independence Day everyone! And Happy Birthday JoAnn!! Today is a day when most gather and fire up the grill hoping all day that the rain will hold out so the fireworks aren't cancelled. I on the other hand will be spending my 4th alone! Wyatt is with Grammie and Grampa Light today and going to his dads this afternoon for the weekend. He is excited about going to the skate park again this weekend. He and Grammie came down yesterday and picked up bikes. Stephen is working today and I will be going grocery shopping and making my weekly stop at Walmart. We will have our BBQ this evening and maybe a nice bonfire (i might even pick up some Sam Adams Light for us to celebrate with).
They are trying something new for the summer at work..4 day work weeks. So starting Monday I will be working 10 hours with the payoff being Fridays off. I like the idea of having 3 day weekends for the summer and it will give me an extra day a week with Wyatt. I find myself longing to be with Wyatt more as he grows older knowing that one day my time with him will be shared with so many more people. You take for granted when they a little that they will always be around. We spend the first few years chasing them around keeping them safe and out of everything. Now that he is 10 being around mom isn't the cool thing so I am willing to steal even the short moments savoring them. One day he will understand why I might hug him a little tighter and a whole lot longer, why I say "I love you" a couple extra times at bedtime, or why I stare at him trying to burn into my memory every little feature on his face.(he will understand the day his first child is born)
I hope everyone has a great day! Enjoy the long weekend and always be safe!
