Spencer had his book club buddy Jacob and his brother Ben over to play the other day. I like to have play dates on Friday. I usually have a clear schedule and the house is reasonably clean. They had a really great time. It's good for me to be around other kids Spencer's age so I can see what is developmentally normal for his age. I think I sometimes expect too much from him. His friends behavior assure me that Spencer is normal in a lot of what he does. Seeing him with his cousin Peter this summer confirmed that for me too. He is still such a little boy. I don't want these days to end. Lately he has been asking me to tell him "little Kristie" Stories. They are just random stories about my life as a kid. He loves them. It's fun to tell them too--brings back a lot of good memories.
Later on that night we had rootbeer floats, some pizza (GF for me) and watched the Life of Pi while a storm raged outside. It was a pretty fun night. I love my family.
