Big Boy

Henry and Chris came to visit last night and it went so well! Chris had a sit down with Henry and explained to him that I am in the hospital again, and of course Henry chimes in to say "because my baby brother is sick again" (he's so smart!). Chris went with that and said yes because your baby brother is sick, and then explained that I have to stay here for a few nights but that I will come home as soon as I can.

Well, I think it helped! How amazing is it that we can talk to our 3 year old like an adult and he seems to grasp concepts we previously put past him!

Anyway, so he came in obviously excited to see me and we played, shared some chocolate cake and watched a Sponge Bob movie (not sure why that cartoon is so hilarious to him!?!). They stayed with me for about an hour and when it was time to go, Henry left without a tear! Chris also figured out that there is an escalator from floor 2 to 1, so they get off a floor early so Henry can ride the escalator (he loves them... kind of like a kiddy ride!).

Phew... a sigh of relief for both mommy and daddy!!! I makes both Chris and I feel so much better that we got through our first day with no tears!
