For the Journey


Any day spent with you is my favorite day. So today is my new favorite day. ~A.A. Milne

"You crown the year with Your goodness, and Your paths drip with abundance." ~Psalm 65:11

Last week we went shopping with the Easter money Mason received from his PawPaw, MawMaw, and MawMaw Mac. We came home with a car for outside and a John Deere tractor riding toy for inside.

Mason loves his new wheels! His favorite is the car. When I push him up and down our street, he waves to all of the houses as we pass by them. He also likes to make little "motor" noises. I'm not really sure where he got that from. I guess it's something that all little boys do.

His tractor is really neat. It came with four animals - a cow, horse, sheep, and pig. Most of the time they just end up in his mouth. But you can also snap them into a special place underneath the seat and to hear the animal noises each one makes. Mason likes the horn. It makes a big, tractor horn sound, and it also makes the sound of the tractor engine starting and sings "Old MacDonald Had a Farm."

Mason is ALMOST walking/running. He is so close. He can walk and even run using his walk-behind toys without our help. He can also walk between the love seat, sofa, and chair in our living room. But where he can't get to on his feet, he crawls to and fast! He talks constantly, but the words we can understand are "eat," "light," "hey," and "daddy." I can hardly believe that in less than two months, he will celebrate his 1st birthday. It just seems like he should still be a little baby!
