It is Friday night, I just got out of the shower, and boy am I beat! Even as tired as I am I will find the energy to go play a game of candy land with my daughter. I need to treasure these moments when she WANTS to be with me. Her highlight tonight is going to be playing a game with Mommy and Daddy. How could I not work up the energy for that.
Marc is 17.... wow, I almost typed 16.... can he really be 17? He is spending the night at Brendan's who is now 23..... Marc would much rather play X-Box with his brother than hang around his Mom. Marc would much rather do just about anything than hang around with his Mom, but I know he still loves me. He just doesn't want to hang out and do things..... wait, I take that back. Last Sunday we had an afternoon out together. We even went to see a movie. He said he would go see it with me in the afternoon, but not at night. No, I do not blame him.... I am sure I probably felt the same way.
Anyway..... thinking about this has just made me think about how much I enjoy being a Mom...... even when I am beat!
I can't believe Marc is 17 but then again so is Andrew!! Boo-hoo our boys are growing up!! I'm glad you guy got to hang out. Andrew takes me on a ride each Sunday and I treasure the times we spend together. Only 2 more years and he'll be gone! I think they still love us even if they don't want to spend time with us.
