"i aM a bIG bOY"



Sharleen was heading out to her family reunion up north and was going to borrow our camping trailer. The boys needed to fix a couple things on it first so they were out in our garage doing so. Seth told Riley they were going camping so naturally Riley wanted to go. Shar asked if that would be ok. Steven and I didn't mind since Riley was sooo excited about it. I think dad was trying to talk him out of it cause he kept telling him that he wouln't see mommy and daddy for a long time. He would also tell him he would miss him so much and Riley would just reply "ok". After packing they were headed out Sunday afternoon. Riley still was so excited. I could tell daddy still wasn't too excited. He waved good bye and they were off. Shar called to tell us they had made it. Riley was doing great. Shar asked him if he was going to cry and he said, "NO I'm a BIG boy and I'm Strong"! What a little character we have. Last night was a little odd not having him here. Mommy and daddy miss him already!

Riley waving bye!

  1. It's hard when your kids are big and brave...can't they stay little just a little longer?

  2. It's hard when your kids act like they don't need mom and dad any more. Don't worry, you have many more years to be needed!!!
