Well today was a great day! I tried to dream up an activity that would be fun for your brother and wouldn't require too much moving on my part... and we ended up riding the city bus all around Berkeley! We rode it from one end to the other, ending in Rockridge where we left the bus to find ourselves face to face with an Oakland fire engine!!! The firemen let us look inside the truck and they even gave your brother a hat. He was so excited. Then we went for breakfast and ate pumpkin waffles before buying you some socks at a kids' consignment store. It was just the perfect morning and we had an equally great bus ride back home.
There are times when being a parent is so challenging but there are also times when it is so liberating. I kept imagining how it will be to bring two boys on the bus, how simple and fun it will be to spend my days off with the two of you once you're a little older. I'm excited to see the joy and wonder of buses and fire engines in your face too, little one.
Love,
Mama
