wearing my hat that Nathan made
Last week Nathan's class had a Mother's Day party. It was so cute, they made us funny hats to wear, frosted sugar cookies, and planted seeds for us. To my horror, the next thing the kids were to do was to stand in front of the class and show us a picture that they had drawn of their mom and what she likes to do. My heart started pounding as soon as the first kid went. What was Nathan going to say his mommy liked to do?! Go on the computer?! Drink wine?! Play with knives???! The first boy said his mommy liked to draw, and the next girl said her mommy liked to drink soda. Another girl's mommy 'liked daddy' and another boy's mom liked to clean. Then, it was Nathan's turn. He shyly gets up in front of us all and points to a picture of me (all colored lines with two eyes) and says....
"My Mommy likes to vacuum!"
Whew!! I thought all my secrets were going to be divulged to his little preschool friends and their moms, but alas.... my one true enjoyable chore was let out of the bag. Yes, it was revealed that I love to vacuum, and I let out a relieved sigh and teared up right then and there. My little boy is growing up and is the most observant, honest little guy. Oh, how I love my Nathan.... and of course, my Dyson vacuum.
