Friday Morning, May 18

I asked him how old he was on this birthday (May 10). He put up four fingers as he continued drinking his orange soda.

I told him that I wanted a nice smile. This is what I got.

I asked him to do a softer smile. I got this.

My favorite item at Fox Meadows is the affogato which features vanilla ice cream, espresso, whipped cream and a pirouette.

Anthony didn’t want anything from the children’s menu – he wanted a regular cheeseburger which is very large. He agreed to share it with Cerwin when we told him how large it was. Even then he had trouble finishing his half. I was surprised that he liked the lettuce and tomato.

It was a cold dreary day but he still spent a bit of time on the playground things.

He loves this tractor – and pretends to be hauling cows. I think he said that he was hauling sixty cows this time.

Before leaving we stopped inside for a cake pop.

He loves these.
