Connor's daddy took him fishing for the first time this weekend, and it was more than adorable for me to sit and watch. Connor took to it so well, and was thrilled to even help Daddy put the worm on the hook although Mommy begged them to just use a fry. He can cast it out so darn far and reel it in so beautifully. He's a natural. His Daddy was very proud!
Patrick and I spent Thursday evening at the Cleveland HOB to see the Edwin McCain concert. For those of you do not know, he sang our wedding song, I'll Be. It was such a wonderful, magical evening and yet again made me realize how very lucky I am to be married to such a great man. Thank you honey!
Well, my fearless daughter has finally disclosed her one fear. It's the...Vacuum. What? How is it that she is not afraid of high drops. Oh no there isn't a bike or scooter or trike that she wouldn't climb right on and try to ride. The slide, she has stopped trying to go down it, and has begun to master climbing UP the slide. How is it that she is afraid of the vacuum? Water...Hahaha...she laughs in the face of the scary water. Nope, it's the vacuum. Oh well, we all have our issues. I'm afraid of monsters that try to chase me up the stairs when all the lights are out at night. :)
Have you ever felt this tiny? Have you ever been engulfed in something so massive, so huge that you felt insignificant? I try to put myself in his place at this exact moment in time. Looking out into this ocean...This enormous and powerful ocean for the first time. Was he feeling Frightened? Empowered? I pray every day that I am able to raise both of my babies to never feel insignificant and always feel empowered by the beauty they are surrounded by.

I am so proud of my little man. He went right out with his Daddy to get his Spider Man fishing pole!
