Silly J & L,
Mommy and Dada did something a little mean tonight. We teased you a bit. On the way to Grandma and Grandpa's house, Dada decided to pull your leg and say that we were NOT going to Grandma and Grandpa's. J, you asked where we were going. I replied, "the moon". You insisted we were still going to Grandma and Grandpa's, but L was convinced. "No, J. We go to da moon!" J, you were persistent. "No, we are going to Grandma Grandpa's house!" "No! We go to the moon!" "NO! Grandma Grandpa's house. I need to eat fruit snacks!" It was entertaining. So much so, that we decided to try it again on the way to Mimi and Papa's house. This time J was the one to fall for it. Dada decided to take a new route to Mimi and Papa's when I said we were really going to the moon this time. J, your exact words were, "it's almost dark and I am hungry. I need to eat dinner. I don't want to go to the moon!" And then you started to bawl. I was trying my hardest not to laugh too loudly as Dada tried to comfort you and assure you. It was so innocent and cute. Of course you quickly realized we were not going to the moon when you recognized your surroundings once again. And you even said you were going to "Mimi's moon" matter-of-factly as we turned onto their street. Silly boys, we would never drive to the moon. Driving from AZ to UT with a bunch of sillies is the most Mommy can bear...
Love,
Mommy
