2010-5-9: Mother's Day-fun time with David D @ the park

After meeting David and his parents at a restaurant at noon, we took David to our home for the afternoon to enjoy time with him as his mother had to work at her new job as a CNA at a near-by care center for the evening. I took him to our park. We walked so far until "carry me"! I carried this "big" boy about a block until we reached the sidewalk leading to the park. Then he ran ahead to show me how fast he can run in his 'fast light tennis shoes'!! What energy!! The park has so many fun things to do. He loved going on these bars, down the slide, on the swing, etc. Grandpa did come to pick us up as this grandma knew she couldn't carry him home about 3 blocks!! Because of the sun and his light complextion he wears his hat. The weather was only in the mid 50's so a little cool.

Hi! Grandma!

the fun bars..

When we got home we played with some balls, rolling down the hill in our backyard, playing in this car and just being active. (I reminiscenced to growing up days where I along with my friends would push my brother's many go-carts! and now here I was pushing my grandson!!...not right!) On the way back to his home I asked him if he would fall asleep in my car, "No" but about 2 blocks from his house he was fast asleep. I must have worn him out! I enjoyed a good night of sleep too!
It was a fun afternoon.
I love not only being a wife and mom but also being a grandma!
