The other day Grandma came over around lunch time and spent the day and evening with e. As you'll see later in the post, they had a ton of fun. After a full day of play it was time for bed. Grandma learned quickly e's routine and if there was a part she would stumble on he was quick to correct her. As she tucked him in he asked about me, he would ask "is Mommy home yet"? Grandma shared with e that she would see to me coming in and giving him a kiss goodnight when I came home.
When I got home I heard all about their adventures and after Gran left I tiptoed into e's room to give him the promised kiss good night. After watching him sleep I leaned over and gave him a kiss on the cheek. To my surprise this little boy of mine who was just in a very deep sleep woke with a big smile on his face, said "Hello Mommy" and then quickly fell back to sleep.
I have to say, although it was a very simple moment, it was one of my most favorite moments with e. It was so special.
Love you e.

And some...
e had a great 4th with his Daddy where he took a boat ride in Forest Park and watched fireworks in Webster Groves, both "firsts".
The boat ride left quite an impression on e. A new game he played with Grandma was called "boat". It requires a quilt a bit of leg strength and if you fall out they'd holler "man overboard". e was quick though to share that you don't do that in a real boat.
Grandma tried teaching e some "knock, knock" jokes. It went a little something like this, "knock, knock, who's there, Mr. Hunt".
