My day with Z today.

Busy and M went to a birthday party nearly all day. That left Z plenty of time with dad. I was a little disappointed he took an extra long nap- but he made up for it. After a little snack- he wanted to play hide and seek. Well, more like- I tell you where to go then I find you. We played until he got bored- it amazes me how long his attention span can be if he wants to do something. As Z wandered off to play by himself for a bit, I made lasagna for dinner. Z is pretty sure it was pizza, since I got his 'really?!?' face when I told him what it actually was. But- the real reason I posted is I gave Z the chance to say prayers at dinner tonight. He got very excited, then serious- and said, OK dad. (Z talking now). First dad, fold you hands like this, (perfect little hand fold). Then he muttered in his best little voice: "Thank you daddy, thank you water melons, thank you Thomas, thank you dinner- Amen!" When I said water melons? He simply said- yes, water melons. To top it off, at exactly 7:15 he informed me he was tired- and it was bed time. One book, 2 hugs and kisses and he is out like a light!
