This week I have been watching my Nephew Wyatt......all I can say is God gave me girls for a reason! I am not sure I was cut out to take care of little boys. His energy level is off the charts. My girls give me a little rest time during the day where they play or watch cartoons, Wyatt will have none of that and you have to keep him busy at all times. He loves to ride his bike and does it without training wheels (he has been able to do this since last summer when he was 3!) but when you live in town you can't just let a 4yr old go where he wants. I knew there was another reason I wanted to live in the country. Today after I took the girls to gymnastics I decided to take the 3 kids to the science center since it was rainy here in the morning and the parks were muddy. We went there for 2 hours and they had a blast. We then got in the car and Wyatt asks can we go to the park when we get home????? I was so exhausted was he CRAZY! We compromised and I filled the little pool and put the sprinkler under the trampoline and they played for a couple hours outside. Then he asked "can we go to the park" as I am about to collapse on the couch from being so tired. Luckily grandma Kathy came and picked him up soon after he asked! Yes, we will be going to the park tomorrow and I think I will make him run around the park several hundred times, I am sure that will not even put a dent in his energy!
