All By Myself

Okay. I am officially bored. Ty is spending a few days with his Grandma and Grandpa in Salt Lake- and I'm all alone. And let's face it- laundry, homework and mopping the kitchen floor just don't hold a candle to my little monkey. Sure things are easier to get done- but where's the fun in doing laundry when you have to do it yourself? Ty loves being my little helper- and will put the clothes that I hand him from the washer into the dryer. And he always cleans out my lint trap for me. And I literally almost cried when I was folding his pajamas- he's just so cute. Oh well. I know he's having fun. In fact my dad sent me this email, letting me know what everyone was up to:

"Just wanted to give you the play by play. He was so funny in the backyard yesterday!!! He loves his little slide. He stays on there all day. He and Melissa would play hide and seek and he would just cackle. He took a break to pick raspberrys. He loves rasberrys. He would get down low with me and look for them and then say, "Nope", when we didn't find them. Then when we found a few he put his hand out and said, "More". He must have eaten a whole bush!!! I then started to weed and he thought that was great fun, because he could throw the dirt clods that were dug up. Dirt everywhere, especially on him. Then we had to water and he watered everything, especially Grandpa. Then he found he could swing the hose all over and it was really fun until he dumped it on his head. Bath time. Short story and a prayer and he slept like a rock!!!

Its times like this that makes us all realize how great kids and grandkids can be. Thanks for sharing.

Anyway. It sounds like they are having fun- it's just been funny around here. Shaun mopes around here like he's just been told they aren't making potato chips anymore. I guess that little boy has wriggled into our hearts more than we ever thought he could. We love you baby boy! Come home soon!
