Everything Is Within My Reach

Tomas was eating watermelon and noticed fortune cookies from last night's dinner sitting on a tray on the stove- he helped himself. Tomas had a haircut today before Gymboree and all it cost me was a sucker, fruit chews and a mini Kit-Kat bar- plus he had to sit on my lap. I would have liked to have had a bit more taken off but he was running out of patience so we thanked the nice lady and were on our way. There were less than 10 kids at Gymboree- usually on Saturdays it is packed- still not interested in parachute time but loves when they bring out Gymbo the clown and is given a hug and a kiss. His favorite part is at the very end when the instructor blows the train whistle, we march around the room, and he's thrown up into the air "Hip, Hip, Hooray" style. I'm thinking a train whistle will be a good birthday present for a 2 year old.
