My Boy has a social life

Wow what a weekend, my boy has a social life that kept us busy this weekend. We went to Bonfante Gardens http://www.bonfantegardens.com/ this weekend and it was great. He had a blast on the little cars drove all over the place as I screamed watch out for the tree or what ever he was aiming at. Paul II was laughing and laughing. This was one of those times it reminds you how great it is to be a parent. The main part of the going to any park is to see the world through a Childs eyes. Pauls eyes are so full of life that is was wonderful to watch him enjoy these things and live life through him.

On Sunday Paul II had a birthday party for one of the kids in his class. The kids seemed to be nice well mannered and they had fun. I am hopeful that Paul will have good friends and grow up in a positive environment; I just hope that my wants and needs don’t get in his way.

My highlight of the weekend came twice I think each of these will be equaled in my memory, first was the excitement in Paul’s eyes when he was driving and laughing at my funny comments. That was on of those father son-bonding moments. The second was this morning when he was sitting in the chair watching TV with his stuffed critters. He bent over and kissed his baby (a stuffed elephant) on the head and said I love you baby, and hugged it. This warmed my heart, a three year old with a kind heat and loving soul. Yes that is my boy!!!!!!

What a weekend, I did miss the mountains, and I missed the forest, today I feel the unsteadiness of not getting a chance to go play, but my boy has a social life and it is great to see him grow so the tradeoff is well worth the restlessness I feel.

I will post some pictures this week as soon as I download them.

What A Wonderful Life

What a wonderful weekend. I spent the day working on the Bronco and Jeep went on a trip down to the River and had a wonderful time. Paul II did not want to come to the river with me, so I hopped into the Bronco and took a little scenic tour.

What a wonderful spot, there is nothing like the river and the smell of the damp mountains to bring peace to my soul. Drive down sat besides the river and realized I am the luckiest man on earth. I spent 15 minutes at the river and knew if I was going to get back in time for supper I had better split.

The Bronco drove awesome I crawled up the hillside in 2 low about 1500 rpm’s and just let the big V8 do its job. Got home in time, wife was pleased with that and the boys were excited about chowing down.

I had one of the best things happen to me this weekend, it is something that will last with me forever. My Son Paul II was working with me in my shop. He tells me “You My Best Friend Daddy”

Can you believe that MY Three Year Old thinks I am his Best Friend? The words of
“You My Best Friend Daddy” Will be with me the rest of my life. What a Wonderful Life!!!!!!
