The 3rd "Boy" In My Life!!

I know this blog is supposed to be about the boys--but let's face it--I do live with three boys (well, males anyway).  I wanted to take a minute to talk about the third "boy" in my life.  Jacob has been in my life for ten years and we have had a lot of fun together. Over the years we have started doing things together that have stuck and are now routine--Every Friday night after the boys go to sleep we go outside and sit on the swing or bench and watch fireflies fly by and look at the stars.  We also use this time to talk--it's one of my favorite things to do with Jacob.  We talk about things we would like to do, places we would like to go--we talk about anything and everything and it's so nice to just sit there together and have that time--just the two of us. 
Saturday nights have become our movie night.  We always rent a movie and watch it together on Saturday night.  This is an exciting thing because we actually get to watch movies that aren't animated or geared towards children--we enjoy watching those movies with the boys but it's nice to watch things that are rated PG-13 and R from time to time!  Ha.
About once every couple of months the boys go and spend a couple of days with their grandparents.  Jacob and I use this as a time to go out--we'll go eat somewhere and go to the theater and see a movie. Sometimes we even go shopping, play a board game or just go for walks, even just sitting in the park and talking is always nice.

We have a lot of fun together and I am thankful for the time we get to spend--just the two of us.  I am very blessed to have 3 terrific guys in my life!
