He is leaving me!

I can't sleep and I know it's because that sweet boy of mine is leaving me in the morning! He will be going to South Carolina to meet his Aunts and Uncles and Cousins that he has never met and I want him to do that but I will miss him so bad! Michael and I can't go because we have so much work to do with our photography business! It saddens me that I won't be the one with him when he seas the beach and ocean for the 1st time!  I am just grateful that he gets to do it! I sure will miss that sweet boy of mine!

Welcome

Michael got home from work and we asked our soon to be 2 year old what he wanted for dinner and he says

"CAKE!" We say "Brody you can't have Cake for dinner." He says "CAKE!!!!" with more assertiveness. So, like any good parents would do Michael went to the grocery store and bought him "CAKE!" O.k O.k. I know what you are thinking and No we didn't just let him have cake for dinner we gave him french fries first... geez what kind of parents do you think we are! So, after he ate his french fries Michael sat him on the balcony and let him eat his "CAKE"! Of course he was messy so, they took a shower and Michael put a movie on for Brody so he could wind down for the night! Well, he kept asking for more "CAKE"! and Michael would say "No". So he would come to me and I would say "Daddy said NO"! and Brody would go back and forth for a while and then I heard him playing with one of his toys in the kitchen but didn't think anything about it! I was on the computer while Michael was in the living room watching t.v. The next thing I knew it eerily quite and I turned around he had gotten "The Cake" (it was actually cupcakes) from the counter had 2 of them on the floor with icing all over the place and having so much fun! So, He got another shower and little time out! I asked him while he was in the shower " Why did he get the cake when daddy told him not to?" and he said "Welcome" !
