RE: A Little Friday Love {Actifit}
Awe… it’s amazing how much love we get from such small packages. Little humans have a way of lighting us up inside. It’s so very cool that you spend every Friday with your niece. She’ll remember that stuff for the rest of her life. Great job aunty, you are killing the Aunty games.
One of my favorite clients just became a grandpa for the first time (my 72-year-old best friend really), so I told him I've gotten in plenty of practice if they need another aunt...🤣 We always have plenty of love in our hearts for more, right? Even when she's being a little punk. I can't wait for her birthday party this afternoon. Uncle @dksart made her a custom mermaid princess coloring book, and I know she's going to love it! (Yeah, he is pretty much killing the gift-giving game right now...) 😉
He is killing the gift game right now! Where is he getting his inspiration from? Love it. Three year olds have a way of acting like turds from time to time but I suppose 30 year olds do too. Haha
72 is a good age for a best friend. We have a couple 70 year old best friends and they are all great. Everyone needs at least one in their life.
His brain just works totally different from mine. My niece was a little ambivalent about it today when we gave it to her, but she was getting so many other gifts it's not surprising. Everyone else thought it was really awesome, though. And now I'm worn out because I got Toddler Workout 2.0! It was a beautiful day, so back outside after the party for more running. 🏃♀️🎂
Haha… she’ll think it’s cool when she starts coloring in it. I remember my great grandparents had a book made for me one Christmas. It had a story about a girl named “me” and when I opened that gift I was probably a little ambivalent too. Years later when I went through my old stuff I came across that book again and it took on a whole other meaning for me. I still have it saved with a few other items at my Moms. She’ll come to see the coolness in that coloring book one day, if not sooner. I bet everyone else gave him the recognition he deserved on it :).
And bravo for running in the afternoon. I hate running if it’s not first thing in the morning. It seems the day takes my running shoes away from me and replaces them with cinder blocks 🤦🏼♀️
Well there was no choice in the matter when the mini one says "Come on Aunt Katie!!!" As she starts running down the sidewalk by herself. 😂
She fell on her hands and knees once--no broken skin, just a few tears. As I was holding her trying to get her to calm down my sister came over to see if she wanted mommy consoling. She looked at her with tears still in her eyes and said "No Mommy, I just want to run." Think I really might have a future running buddy on my hands. Though I might have a tough time keeping up with her!
Oh yes! That’s the perfect answer little one. Running is so good for the soul, I swear. Good job aunty!
