I started the below and couldn't get around to posting because of that terrible thing we all call WORK. Dang work, keeps getting in the way of personnal life.
Well the weekend is over and now we start another amazing week. So it was a Matthew weekend, Team pictures and Easter. Talk about one busy weekend!!!!! Matthew and Sharlene developed a list of everything we had to do. He was so funny. "we can't do that Daddy, it's not on the list" So Saturday started bright and early 7:30am, I know, 7:30 isn't that bright and early. Let me tell you, on a weekend, that pretty dang early for me. :-) We are supposed to be at the ballpark for pictures by 10:15am. I need to get my hairs cut, Matthew needs to be fed, we have b-day party to go to later in the day and Easter is sunday which means baking and smoking. So by the time we get out the door, it's about 9:45am. Get to the barbershop by 9:50. Keep in mind that Crystal is in South Auburn and Pictures are in North Auburn. Sharlene asks me, "Are you going to have time" "Yep" I said. Should listened to my Wife. By 10:15 I was back in the car and we were on our way. Remember, my players were instructed to be there not later than 10:15 and here their coach is running late. :-) I set the expecatation that they need to be on time to games, practices and meetings. Sharlene says I need to give the parents all a free pass, since I was late. Think I'll listen to her this time. :-) So pictures went off without incident and we were off to complete a stop at Mom & Dad's, then to Winco, then Sam's club & Wal-Mart then home. While Matthew and Sharlene stayed home I went to a Little League meeting at GSA. Back home by 2:45 then off to a birthday party for one of my coaches. Home by 7:30 I think. And that was just Saturday.
Sunday was easter and another day of go go go go go. Oh, I have to tell you this. So Sharlene was up at O dark 30 to go to sunrise service and so she and I could hide eggs. We got most of them hidden when I was going to hide some in Matthew's room when I noticed he was sitting up in bed, wide awake. I snuck back to bed and Sharlene went in to get Matthew so he could come and climbed in bed with me. Needless to say, he didn't go back to sleep and just talked to me. Sharlene left for a bit, turns out she just ended up going to the store. Well Matthew is jabbering and didn't hear her come home. Next we hear water running and dishes moving. Matthew gets that excited tone in his voice "Daddy, Daddy, the Easter Bunny is still here." "Daddy, the Easter Bunny is doing dishes for us" "Can I go out and see him". I told him no, I know, I'm a mean daddy. So anyway, Matthew is just freaking out because the Easter Bunny is in our Apartment doing our dishes. So he turns to me and tells me to go out and tell him to leave so that he can go look for his Easter eggs. "what if I scare him away" "you won't Daddy, you talked to Santa Clause before and didn't scare him away" How can you argue with logic like that? It was precious. Ok, I'm closing this one out and starting a new one. Thanks for reading.
