Daniel had been on "vacation" since Wednesday. Only that meant more moving and taking care of a bunch of things around the new place. Packing, unpacking, painting, mowing, mounting, installing, connecting, and so on and so on. That was our weekend.
On Friday night though, we dropped Dane off with his Gramps for their first overnighter. That's him waving bye to us from the front door as we were leaving in the last post. Dane had not stayed the night away from us before, but it was much less scary than we anticipated. When we've left him with family to sit in the past, we always ask each other "Do you miss him yet?" and "How about now?" every 15 minutes. This time we didn't ask. This time, we went out to dinner and a movie and came home to have the house to ourselves. We slept in (8:00 is the new sleeping in) and enjoyed a much needed leisurely morning. We were however thrilled to see Dane when we went to pick him up. He did well; went to bed a little earlier than usual and slept in a little later. And when we got him home, he took the mother of all naps - 3.5 hours!!! There was evidence that Dane Thomas and Gramps had enjoyed their time together snacking and playing, so we all had a great time!
Thanks again, Gramps!
