It has been more than a month since my last post. I always tell myself that I am going to start keeping up with my blog on a weekly basis, and then I get busy with life, too busy living life to be blogging about life.
The boys and I are loving our summer. Right now Brainy Bird is at overnight church camp. Little Chirp and I miss our brainiac, but we are appreciating our one on one time. Little Chirp has a contagious zest for life. He is furiously competitive, and I love how excited he gets when he wins at a game. On Tuesday night, we decided to play Wii. We liked the idea of playing while big brother is away because it would give one of us a chance to win for a change. Big brother is hard to beat at video games. We decided to have a computer player play with us. We set the player to easy and pretended that it was Brainy Bird. The joke was on Little Chirp and I when the computer won!
On Friday, Little Chirp and I will enjoying our last day of just the two of us. We plan to go bowling and play some games at Main Event. On Saturday, we will be picking up Big Brother from camp, and dropping off Little Chirp with his favorite Aunt for a week of spoiling. I am extremely happy that both of my boys are having such an amazing summer, but I do look forward to our school year routine of dinners at home and homework all together in the kitchen. I miss my little birds while they are away on their summer adventures.
They should both have plenty to write about if their teachers hit them with the traditional, “What I did on my summer vacation” writing assignment.
