nephews


I had a blast with my oldest nephew, Andrew, today. I picked him up and took him to McDonalds for dinner and then we went to watch a t-ball game. He was so funny, because what he really wanted was to not be watching, but playing. He said, "I wish I had my baseball stuff so I could play." We watched most of the game then headed to the dog park next to the ball fields. The concept of a park for dogs was new to him, but made perfect sense. Dogs need friends too! On the drive home we talked. These are some of my favorite times to spend with him. He constantly teaches me. Today he said something that just made me feel like I was ten feet tall, which if you know me is a feat since I am only 5 foot on a good day. He looked at me all serious and said, "Jen, you are the best Jenny ever." Of course, I had to ask this question, although I should have left it alone, "Andrew, do you know any other Jennys?" And sadly, the answer was no.
