These Little Wonders: What a day!

This was one of those days that was so busy and full,that I thought what happened this morning happened a couple of days ago!

First, Aidan's Easter party. What a great thing that was. I will post pics as soon as I get them developed. Yes, I am old fashioned and still shoot film. BUT, they are beautiful pictures! The room mom is amazing and does such a fantastic job planning. She even had something special for the siblings to do! During the party, I ran out and took a pic of Maddie at her Easter party too. Maddie, Aidan ,and Izzie were all sugared up and ready to go. That is where the busy, crazy part of the day comes in.

Soooo, Maddie spent the afternoon with us. The little girls chattered non-stop for HOURS. After we got home we had lunch, played outside, hit the park, got a slush(hello, happy hour at sonic), played inside and then back outside, ate dinner and then on to Awana's. I am worn out!

At the park, I met the rudest, punk-a**, kid in the world. Yes parents, there are times when it is appropriate to smack your kid upside the head and consider military school. The kids wanted to slide...what kid doesn't? There were 2 kids - one hugging 18, the other probably 11-12, both TOTAL thugs - sitting at the bottom of the slide. Aidan said, "hey guys, I want to slide" - BLANK stares. So I said, "hey guys, the kids want to slide". The older one looks at me and actually says, "yeah". And when he says yeah, it's not the kinds that means "sure thing!" it's the kind of yeah that is best interpreted as I am not getting off my loser a** and doing anything about it. Excuse my language, I was PISSED. I proceeded to say, "sooo, can you MOVE!" Eye roll and "whatever" and they move. I hope his parents are royally proud. Fortunately, parks and rec showed and saw this exchange and ran them off. I was told to call PD next time. I told Aidan that if he EVER treated anyone that way, I would squash him like a bug. He grinned and said "mom, I will NEVER act that way - they are losers". He is my sweet boy and I hope that doesn't change.

Noah got to swing for the first time and LOVED it, Maddie and Izzie giggled to their little hearts content. I am tapped out!
