Three Again

Tomorrow is my birthday, but today I digressed to the age of three.......Jordan(3 year old great nephew) spent the day with me. He LOVES to run(on his tip toes) so we ran all day. We also lay on a blanket in the grass and looked up at the sky. We ate Popsicles and fresh pineapple and drank lemonade. We had cookies and milk. We ran some more. I answered , maybe a million questions......and told him a million times that I loved him. We ran.........finally about thirty minutes before his grandmother picked him up, we were still running, and then I had to just walk.... he was so sad, he said" you can win the race, I won't run so fast". At that point it didn't matter how tired I was, I ran.......and of course, he beat me!

We built castles on our new deck, fed and watered the birds. It was fun being three. Believe me, there is so much to do, with all the construction, but I gave Jordan the day........he gave me a vacation. All that stuff that needs to be done, guess what it didn't go anywhere, it will still be here this weekend, I will do it then. I spent the day outside, in the pollen........it was worth it.

No matter how hard it is to breathe tonight, it was great being three today.

I hope when he grows up, he remembers me.... and the time that we spend together. Thinking about my birthday tomorrow, how people remember me, that is important stuff to me these days.........I want to be a good memory, I want to be a smile on someone's face and kindness that touched their hearts, I want the people that I love, to know that I loved them.......that's my birthday wish.....and to be three again real soon.
