My sons are my pride and joy. I adore them both for different reasons. I have actually spent time thinking about which one I love more and I cannot come up with an answer. I do this because I am such a healthy, well adjusted person. Well as of last night I decided which one I like more. Greyson.
Yesterday I took the boys to school and Tony was to pick up because I had a meeting. This was out of their normal routine but I really didn't think they would notice. I finished my meeting early so being the perfect wife I am (aka, paying in so I can collect later), I called Tony and I picked up the boys.
Just imagine, a happy mommy getting to see her precious children early! I was so excited. I walked into Preston's room and he didn't even get up. He looked at me and very seriously said "Where is my Daddy?". WTH kid? I told him Daddy would see him at home and I was happy to see him. Still sitting there he said "I want my Daddy". Whatever, I can win this. I told him he could pick dinner, he wanted to go have pizza at NY Pizza (best. place. ever.). I said yes! (surely he will love me more) His response...."Will my Daddy be there?" I just gritted my teeth and envisioned myself pushing him or at least kicking him in the shin.
This is not fair at all! I did all the work. I grew their kidneys, appendages, and all chambers of their hearts but I get nothing in return. If it weren't for me they would still be little souls waiting for a home. But they want Daddy. Really?
Hours pass.
Okay, now that I got that out I can be grown up enought to admit I still don't have a favorite. But when did my baby boy become Daddy's buddy? I guess it speaks to one thing, these boys have an awesome Dad! It actually makes me proud. :) But I will have you know, when Daddy put him in timeout this morning he screamed for Mommy. Win! Those who grow the organs always win in my house.
Great post little mama!
