Goodbye Tooth #5

Posted on January 22, 2011 3:42 pm by TheAngelForever

Dear NHL,

Over the last three weeks, you have lost three new teeth. The latest came out while you were waking up this morning. I have to admit, I am VERY glad to see this tooth gone. For quite some time, this pesky tooth has been twisted in the front of your mouth. We knew that it was probably ready to come out, but it did not want to give.

On the snow day last week, JSL bumped into your face. You were hurt and came running to me. I immediately saw blood coming from your mouth. I feared the worst since we were getting 13” of snow outside. Luckily, it was just your brother knocking your tooth into a new direction.

That little tooth held on for another week. Friday while in school you must have eaten something that bothered it and once again it started to bleed. When you told me about this, I will admit I was starting to plot how to help you get that top front tooth out.

Thankfully your tooth must have had enough. Now we have to get ready for another visit from the Tooth Fairy tonight. Here’s a look at your rather toothless smile:

Keep up the great work getting the teeth out on your own. I have a feeling we may have the other top one coming out sooner rather than later. Man, you sure are giving the Tooth Fairy a workout.

Love,

Mommy

Helping With Sick Little Brother

Posted on January 15, 2011 6:13 pm by TheAngelForever

Dear NHL,

It was a tough week here at home. JSL was sick most of the time and attention has been on watching his fever and easing his cough. Wednesday, during your snow day, you were such a help.

When I went outside to shovel around the house, you watched your little brother for me. Then, when I told you that his temperature was going higher, you helped get me his water. You wanted me to play a game with you, but I did not want to leave JSL’s side since he was so sick. I allowed you to play on the computer and you were so good.

You sat there quietly using the computer and checked in with me from time to time. When I needed something else, you got it for me. Thank you so much for being so helpful, not being jealous – you are a great big brother and amazing son.

Love,

Mommy

A Snow Filled Apology

Posted on January 8, 2011 9:15 pm by TheAngelForever

Dear NHL and JSL,

This morning we woke up to more snow. Last time it snowed, it was too cold to stay outside and everyone was pretty sick afterward. Today was the perfect chance to head out and get some playing in.

Most of the snow on the sidewalk out front was already gone, so we had to think about a place to use the sled. Daddy suggested we try the back yard. This is where my apology comes in. For some reason we have NEVER gone to play in the snow back there.

Now, I think we all know that this was a huge mistake. Both of you had an amazing time. You made a sled track, made snow castles, snow cakes, and even tried to make angels. It was so much fun watching you romp, play, laugh, and enjoy the time together.

I brought my camera outside to capture some of the memories. For now I am going to show you one video I took. This video is of NHL being chased by Daddy pulling around JSL. The three of you had a blast romping in the snow:

Thank you both for the magical snow memories. It made all of the shoveling worth the effort to see both of you so happy.

Love,

Mommy

Toy Story 3 on Ice – Family Night

Posted on December 18, 2010 10:24 pm by TheAngelForever

Dear NHL and JSL,

Tonight we went to see Disney on Ice. The two of you had seen the commercials on TV for quite some time. Papa mentioned that he had gotten you tickets, so you both knew it was only a matter of time.

NHL, this was the third Disney on Ice show that you have been to. You were a pro and knew what to expect when we walked into the arena. I think JSL was a little overwhelmed. He was mesmerized by all of the merchandise for sale when you walked in, the people selling items at the seats, and then the show itself.

Daddy and I decided to get both of you some Toy Story hats that came with cotton candy. They were cute and I think both of you will enjoy them more at home. Here are a few pictures:

Now we just have to hope that Daddy can rescue the photos from his new camera. Something went wacky during the show and they may be gone. Thank goodness I took my camera along.

I can not wait to talk to both of you in the morning about the show. I just hope you sleep in a little since you were up so late. Looking forward to more magical memories with both of you in the future.

Love,

Mommy

The no dance or sing Chanukah party

Posted on December 11, 2010 5:53 pm by TheAngelForever

Dear JSL,

On Wednesday your school had their Chanukah party. Mimi came with me to watch the singing and dancing. I figured you would love to have her there, and she loves to watch you entertain. When we arrived, the room was all decorated for Chanukah. It was very festive and we sat down to wait for all of you to arrive.

When you came in, I noticed that you would not look up. Then as everyone began to dance and sing – it became even more funny. Here is what you were doing most of the time.

There are five girls and four boys in your class. It seems that the four of you must have talked with one another. Not one of the boys sang or danced the entire time. I took a video and can not wait to show it to you years from now.

When the group singing was over, it was time to grab a snack. They had potato latkes, mini donuts, and some fruit. I was so happy you actually ate some of the potato latkes when Mimi asked you to.

I am still left a bit confused. My little boy that loves to put on shows when we go near and far, refused to perform at this event. Where did this sudden shyness come from at nursery school? I can not wait to see what happens next time you have a show.

Love,

Mommy
