spend time with my nephew

but a week or so ago I was horrified to discover that for three years I have overlooked my honourary godfathership of a little boy easily within reach. Fortunately his birthday is on Sunday, so perhaps I can help to make that occasion enjoyable… though without (for absolute lack of funds) any presents typical for such an occasion not originating from inside my room. (Perhaps I will discover a hidden cache of stuffed animals.)

I’d say he could be good practice for my actual nephew, but given their two-year age gap their respective developments will remain at some odds for quite a while.

This is a tough one, considering the 5 1/2 month little guy lives 3,000 miles to the West, but I’m determined! I’m also hoping my new web cam will help to bridge the distance.

The Tuesdays stalled out, but now – they live just down the street. I’m so excited. The fella stopped by last night with his dad right out of the blue.

This should continue.

Tuesdays are now our days to hang out with the little fella. He’s now one, and sometime soon he won’t hate our house so much.
It is sort of discouraging that he cries the whole time he’s here, but i know he’ll grow out of it.

He came over on Tuesday with his parents for poker night, but it was so crowded that he got tired and overloaded quickly.

I was going to see him Thursday night, but he was sick so dinner at their house was cancelled.
