Life Here...

I was heading to bed.  Gave Kojie some fresh water, took a few pieces of candy from the kids Easter baskets, and turned off the kitchen lights when I heard Blake.

Blake is 5 going on six, and randomly when he is really tired or really excited about the next day he has a tough time sleeping.  Little dreams wake him up for 20 seconds or so.  I heard him snorting and coughing so I went to check on him.  

Sitting there on the side of his bed in his underwear, soccer cleats, shin guards and socks.  Funny sight to see at 11:50 at night.

"What are you doing Blake?"  no answer.  "Why do you have your soccer stuff on son?"  "I don't want to be late to the game in the morning dad."  "O.K. son,... lets get this stuff off and go back to bed."  

A quick trip to the bathroom and he is back asleep in less than a minute.  Soccer cleats to bed?  I never did that.  How do you sleep in soccer cleats?

How darling.....and hilarious! He's can be such a crack up, his imagination knows no limits! Sorry we missed seeing you in Dallas, I wished it would have worked out. We flew out at 11:20 and are home safely now. Love to y'all. (he he he) Sis.
