Each child had an opportunity to be the "only child" today. After a great playdate this morning at a park with a friend and her kids, (bonus, Meega and Bennett showed up!), we ran a few errands and then came home so Love Bug could take a much needed nap.
While Love Bug napped, only child The Mayor decorated his Valentine's Mailbox for school. Each kid needed to decorate a box or bag to bring to school so on Valentine's Day the kids can put their valentines in their friend's mailboxes. How cute is that? I took him to the dollar store and found this red box designed to be a Valentine's Mailbox (it has a slit on each side for cards to be put in) and then I let him pick out stickers to put all over it. He was so proud and excited.
Once Love Bug woke up, we took The Mayor to Mamie and PopPop's house for a sleepover. The Mayor was thrilled to be spending the night over there; he helped pack his bag and even chose which stuffed animals needed to go with him. He specifically picked a dog and said "Mamie and PopPop will love seeing this dog". Love that boy.
After we dropped off The Mayor, only child Love Bug and I ran a few errands. She loved being the only one with mommy but did miss her brother. Once we got back to the car, she asked to sit in The Mayor's car seat. So sweet.
We came home and ate dinner and then cuddled together to watch...what else...Tangled. That movie is by far Love Bug's favorite movie and she wants to watch it 24/7. Literally. I let her stay up a little later and then we rocked and sang all of her favorite songs before bed.
