Boo Boo & Nana

This morning I'm working from home for the first time with my new job.  In a couple of hours I'll be leaving for a meeting that's about 2 hours north of my house.  Until then I'm working away on my laptop, upstairs, in my bedroom.

My door is cracked open and I can hear my son playing with the wonderful woman taking care of him.  I am so thankful that my Boo Boo loves his Nana Gladys.  Her personality, as well as being the 2nd of 10 children, caring for her own kids, grandkids, greatgrandkids, and many other kids inbetween, makes her the wonderful child caregiver that she is.  Of course it helps that my parents are home with him too - while they don't have the stamina to give him the same level of care that she can - it's good to know that they're around if she needs a break. 

Anyhoo, I can hear them playing downstairs.  When she reads to him I can't help but listen to the story she's telling him too.  From time to time I can hear him get fussy, but then somehow or another, she quickly distracts him with something else and he's a happy baby again.  What a good baby, I love my little guy!

I miss him so much during the day and I cherish the time we have with each other during the week.  I was a little sad that he fell asleep so quickly last night because I wanted to hang out with him just a little bit longer.  Part of me was hoping he'd wake up in the middle of the night so I could scoop him up and cuddle with him in my bed...but alas, he slept through the night. 

Here's hoping that my meeting won't run late so I can beat Orange County traffic!
