With Evan being on vacation from school this week, he had a chance to join Logan and I at Gymboree today. We attended music class with Miss Suzanne and then stayed for play class too. We have been to open play a few times but Evan had said that he wanted to be able to go to the classes again too. Music class was small, only four boys, and the theme was marching music. The boys had fun at both classes and Evan was happy to see Miss Suzanne and join us for music class again.
After class, we had a special school vacation lunch out at Friendly's. At the end of lunch, after ice cream, the boys wanted balloons. All the ones near the door were gone so we asked the manager if there were any more. She returned with two balloons and we headed on our way. While trying to get out the door, on this super windy day, with two little boys and a to-go box, the wind whipped the balloons right off the sticks. I was left with two empty sticks and two heart broken boys. I felt terrible but there was nothing I could do. Lesson learned...balloons and windy days don't mix! (This is actually the second time Evan's balloon from Friendly's was lost because of the wind.)
As I am posting this about 3 weeks after this actually took place, I have to tell another cute story about the balloons. Logan falls asleep in the car quite often for about 10 minutes, especially when we pick Evan up from school. Almost every time that he has woken up in the last few weeks, he looks at me and says "B'loon. Blow 'way. Windy." Poor little guy...I guess this was a bit more upsetting to him than I realized.
