Once Upon A Time...















Zac will be turning 3 on April 21st so to celebrate his birthday, Tom's mom and my parents all traveled from NY to TX earlier this week.  One of Zac's favorite things to do is read a story in bed before his nap and bedtime as well, followed by a made up story by one of us that he calls a "Once upon a time".  Yesterday, he wanted Grandma Gail to put him down for his nap and asked her to tell him a Once upon a time.  The lights are off and they were laying in his bed while Grandma told him the story of Goldie Locks and the Three Bears.  Zac must have really exhausted her earlier in the day because she would fall asleep in mid sentance and it would be quiet for a second.  Zac finally spoke up and said "Turn the page"!  She would wake up, start the story again, fall asleep, and Zac would say again "Turn the page"!  How funny to think that he believed she was reading a story out of a book and kept forgetting to turn the page and keep reading!  
This afternoon we are all headed to the Great Wolf Lodge for two days of watersliding and swimming for Zac's birthday so there should be some interesting pictures when we return!

What a lucky boy to have such great great grandparents. I always love how both of your families are so involved and available, even far away. Happy Birthday Zac
