Those were the words you said to me tonight as we snuggled in bed... You read me two stories and then sang me songs, as I nuzzled my nose as deep as possible into the side of your neck... You still smelled of suntan lotion and sun kissed skin...
"I did too..."
Everyday with you is a great day... the best day ever.
Today we went to the water park (your 'right now' favorite) you rode all the big slides, even the tunnels, you squealed and laughed, we had splash wars and we snuggled under towels in beach chairs to get warmed by the sun... We floated in the lazy river, just one more lap... We rocked the waves in the wave pool and tipped ourselves over a time or two... You still always hold my hand, and take stairs slow, I let you play in the kid splash zone by yourself while I sit in the chairs to get some sun (because I can see you the entire time) after every slide you make sure to lock eyes with me and smile... When it's almost time to go you ask for 6 more slides, 2 of each... and I say yes. You slide exactly 6 times, not a single time more and come out of the water ready to go. No asking for more or begging to stay, not a peep... you crawl up on my chair and I wrap you in a towel and we 'sun dry' for a bit and then hand and hand we're ready to go...
I am so proud of you. You truly are the best... I love you sweet boy...
and I had such a great day!!
