Henry and I went to our family reunion today. He had a blast which makes all the hard work on my plate worth it. I guess.
I've been struggling with a lot of things lately:
Mistakes I've made and lessons learned, if any.
Finding a balance between not wanting Henry to miss out on anything because I'm a single mom and saying no to doing things that just aren't realistic as a single parent family.
I have more to say about these things but tonight I'm really tired. I'm not even sure I'm making sense because I might have washed down some Benadryl with a bloody mary a while ago. Huh. Who knows.
Henry and I went to the county fair this past week. I was kind of sad the license plate selection was waaaaaaay bigger than the belt buckle selection.
Henry got to see the baby chicks but the big sign said, "DON'T TOUCH" so I didn't let him touch.
Henry loved the petting zoo. They actually had a really nice setup this year. Lots of room to run around and lots of different animals. Henry and I especially liked the alpaca. So soft! Too bad I didn't get a picture of it. Henry isn't afraid of the animals which I think is good. Oh. Another thing I've been struggling with lately is that balance of wanting Henry to have a healthy fear of things, like strangers and strange animals and weird relatives and water, but not be afraid all the time of these things. I don't know if I'm making sense anymore. Time to read and pass out...
