Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays are the days that Donovan has school and I drop him off and pick him up while Alfredo stays home with the other two. I am thankful that I get to spend at least a few minutes with just me and him. He is such a smart, funny kid, and even though he sometimes talks a little too much (I have NO idea where he gets that, wink - wink) I love our rides together. Yesterday he was being so silly and was making me laugh so much on the way home. Sometimes he says or does something and it reminds me so much of how fast he is growing up. I am trying so hard to slow down and pay attention to him now while I can. I am so thankful for the few stolen minutes we get together and will cherish them for as long as I can.
Today I am thankful that my boys love their baby sister so much. Donovan is so sweet with her and loves her so much. And even my crazy bull-in-a-china-shop Giovanni is so gentle and gives her little kisses on her head. Today Alfredo, the boys, and I went to the store while Adelin stayed home with Grandma and took a nap. Donovan fell asleep in the car there and I think that may be part of the reason why he forgot Adelin wasn't with us. On the way home he was convinced that we forgot Adelin at the store and I kept trying to get him to remember where she really was, but he just KNEW she was at the store. Poor baby was so upset and almost in tears when we got home. Needless to say, even though Alfredo distracted him with his phone, Donovan was pretty relieved when we got home and I brought Adelin up so he could see her. I'm so thankful I have kids who all love each other so much already.
SO CUTE!
