Oh Ty

Ty was reminiscing the good old days while being tucked into bed the other night. He recalled that at age one he wasn't able to race so being one was not fun. At two, he could race but not very fast. At three, ahh that perfect age of three, he was fast and life was just so much more fun than being five. Being five is hard.

I walked into the bedroom and I found Ty watching the weather channel. I asked him what he was doing and he replied, “just sitting in here alone watching the weather like Dad because I haven’t done that in a long time”.

He'd like his daddy to stop by the dress up store on his way home from work to buy a Luiji costume because he can't always be Mario. 

He took a quick trip to Target with Lauren and returned home to get all his money so he could go back for a Spiderman mask. He doesn't have enough and is eagerly working a deal with his parents to earn $10 because he has to be Spiderman some days too.

He's still struggling with Kate's school schedule. He misses her and watches the clock for her return each day. At bedtime last night he informed me very firmly that Kate would not be going back to that dumb school because it is taking too long.
