I also spent some time today with a "younger man". A blonde, blue eyed, dimpled babe who dressed up just for me....in a spiderman halloween costume. Yes, I was with my little B-man (and his mom). I just love that kid....he's my buddy. We shared M&M's and Skittles today, as well as a cherry slurpee. He asked me if I would buy a bathing suit so that I could go swimming in his pool with him....then we could play with his dog who loves to catch balls. I tell ya, who could ask for anything more? We went to the store and I carried him around for a while. Oh how I miss that! He would rub my arm, then put his little hands on my shoulders and get real close to whisper something "very important"....like "did you know spiderman is really Peter Parker?" or "let's run away from mommy and go to the zoo!" He cried when I couldn't come back to his house and play Mr. Mouth with him, but I promised we would go to lunch next week and he could sit by me....how I wish my own kids would still be excited by that prospect!
Not much else happened today....we grilled hot dogs for dinner, I colored Betsy's hair before she left for work, and wee one did "most" of the dishes (left me 2 pans and a cutting board) whilst JB and I went for our evening walk. It's getting really warm now, but tonight there was a nice breeze which cut down the sweat factor! LOL.
