Boys Weekend
Last night my two oldest boys had a sleepover at Jeff’s house with James and Jude. It was their first real sleepover without mom and dad or a grandparent… and they enjoyed every minute.
Tonight these boys came over to our house for dinner and afterwards – wrestled and played battleship and dressed up as super heroes and every giggle was pure joy. James took the lead and arm-wrestled and then tackled my husband with all the boys in a huge pile up. It was noisy and crazy and exactly the way a group of boys has fun. (video link below)
My kitchen is messy, and I am tired – but my heart is full. There is always a twinge of sadness when they leave – but a hope that one day soon this will be an everyday occurrence and not just the few weekends each month they spend with dad.
