Mothers' Day and Thomas Day!

Today we went to see Thomas the Tank Engine at Heritage Park, and Granny and Grandpa came too. He's been excited for this day for so long. Last week he said to me "Mommy, Thomas is going to be so happy to see me!"

When Beck caught his first glimpse of Thomas, he said (in his loudest voice ever, and body language to match) "THOMAS....I'M HEEEERRRRE!!" We were laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes!

Another funny moment was when we were all sitting on the grass enjoying ice cream cones. Thomas came around the bend and Beck yelled out "THOMAS....I HAVE ICE CREAM!"

Tonight as I was changing Beck into his pyjamas, he said to me again, "Happy Mothers' Day" (our mouths dropped open and it brought tears to my eyes again!) Then he said "...and Happy Thomas Day to me!" Absolutely! Happy Thomas Day, Beck! And Happy Mothers' Day to all the mothers out there!

What an exhausting and fantastic day!
