Re: Sam\'s 3rd Birthday

That brings back some memories.

When my son was about that age I'd bring in about two ton of concrete sand a year for a play area beside the house. We had Ertl and Tonkas to die for.

I'd come home tail tucked firmly between legs after a hard day of getting after it. Then the pair of us would sit down in that sand and tractor and truck for awhile.

Some great moments. Wonderful therapy. And memories, what memories. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I do believe there are times when the most grown up thing a man can do is become a kid for awhile.

Enjoy the moments. That son of mine is thirty one now and lives fifteen hundred miles away. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

But if everything goes according to schedule I'll have a new grandson tomorrow!!!!!!!

Oh I look forward to being a kid again!

Happy Birthday Sam!!!

My son is now 5 months old. I was telling the wife just the other day I was looking forward to the day we can go out and play with the Tonkas in the sand.

I remember coming home once from college. There in the snow were the marks of a small Tonka snowplow that I played with growing up. I asked dad who's kids were over and had the toy out? With a grin he said it was him!!

Re: Sam\'s 3rd Birthday

Thanks for the replies and yes I appreciate every moment. I think one of the best things a Dad can remember is how to be a kid and to interact with your children at there level. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Memories are priceless and so are your kids leaning over to tell you they love you right in the middle of playing. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Our next pictures will be of our oldest sons pumpkin patch. He'll be selling pumpkins and gourds this fall. He's 8 and all excited. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
Take care
