Back to Normal

Well, things are back to normal at our house tonight. Heidi is back home safe and sound and Wyatt went back home tonight too. Jacob and Wyatt have had sooooo much fun over the past three days! They have played so hard and had a ball doing it. Just a few of their activities included basketball, climbing trees, playing in the tree house, building a fort in the bedroom, catching all kinds of critters including butterflies, frogs, crickets and grasshoppers, swinging side by side as they twisted the swings so that they would face each other as they flew by, romping in the woods, I even saw them off to war and back home safely a few times. Aren't boys so much fun!!!! While Wyatt was here we received a message on the telephone from another one of Jacob's friends, Anthony. The message went something like this "Hello, this is Anthony and I REALLY want to talk to Jacob, so when you get back home could you PULEASE pick...up....the....phone!! Oh, and Jacob you are a big fat doe doe head!!" LOL!! Jacob's response to this....hysterical laughter!! Now, girls would not react to being called a "big fat doe doe head" in this manner. It would NOT be funny at all would it?! In fact, those would most likely be fighting words for a female. Most probable they would be cause for the silent treatment for at least a good week. Ya gotta LOVE eight year old boys!! :)

Jacob had such a good time with Wyatt that he cried all the way home from church after Wyatt went back home. I was so surprised by this response from Jacob because I have never seen him react like this before. He REALLY had a fun time! The tears continued until bedtime. :( Poor baby!! I remember the feeling so well though! Well, I actually still feel this as an adult when fun times with family and friends have to come to an end. Jacob is fast asleep now. I'm sure he will feel much better in the morning. Good rest has a way of fixing things like this. Sweet dreams my beautiful boy!!
