Day #2 of Curves!
How I ask, am I going to make this a habit? I am beside myself with contempt for Cody's father who can't agree to keep Cody for 48 hours without bargaining for a few hours off so he can go to the gym ... I'm getting better. I don't say anything outloud anymore. I just fume within. I mean he says all the time he would give his life for his son ... how about we don't go off the histrionic deepend and you just give up a few hours Edwin? Really. Is keeping your son for 2 days in a row without calling me for a favor too much to ask?
I don't know why his selfish requests ever take me by surprise....like he will ever change....better off to just accept the few pounds I add each year and chalk them off to raising a fantastic kid all on my own.
The storm tonight was sending Cody over the edge. Do you remember being scared of thunder and lightening? I always think of my favorite movie, "The Sound of Music" when there is a storm and Cody is scared. It makes me want to burst out in song: "I simply remember my favorite things and then I don't feel so bad ..." Anyway Cody fell asleep with prayers on his lips, heart and hands ... this picture is one of the many reasons I am still glad I made my kids do this photo blog project. They may not have all embraced the idea but it has certainly made me aware of and ready for some serious Kodak moments.
