There’s no place like home
Friday, June 24th, 2011From Friday Mom – Jaime:
I don’t normally do a lot of traveling. But I spent the first 3 weeks of the month without spending a full week in Jersey. I’ve been down to Maryland, out to Chicago and down to Florida. And now I’m happy to say that it’s Friday, and I am not headed to another airport or train station, and there’s no drive ahead of me longer than heading to the Ocean County Courthouse.
Tonight, after many months of waiting, Cars 2 is finally out. Every day for the past two months (at least) when I’ve picked Andrew up from school, he’s asked, “We go to Cars 2 today?” And he has been extremely disappointed when I’ve told him (repeatedly) that it’s not out yet.
Yesterday I asked Andrew if he knew what we were going to do after school on Friday. He got all excited and said, “GO TO FLORIDA!” (Nope, that was last week.) “Ummm…go to the beach?” (Try again, also last week). “I GO FISHING WITH PAPA?” (Two weeks ago)
“I no no mommy. What we do?” he finally asked, thoroughly defeated when he couldn’t figure it out.
So I told him we were finally going to see the movie. He started cheering and running around the classroom chanting something incoherent that may have had a little resemblance to “I’M GOING TO CARS 2 AND GETTING SKITTLES!”
So tonight, we’ve got a hot date with Lightening McQueen… Jealous, are you? 😉
Have a great weekend everyone! I know we will… It’s good to finally spend a week at home!
