Afternoon car rides

Everyday when I get off work I go to pick up Maddie first because her school is the closest to work. Most days she is playing in the exersaucer and when she sees me she grins from ear to ear. I love seeing her smile like that, I just know she is happy to see me! It makes my heart so happy! I usually chat with her teacher for a minute about her day then get back in the car to go get Mason. I usually sing whatever is on the radio to Maddie on our short trip.



At Mason's school they usually see my car before I can get out. So as soon as I walk in the door he is running around the corner saying "momma" in the most excited/ where have you been all day voice. Most days I get a huge hug and it is so sweet!
On the ride home I turn off the radio because if I don't Mason is quick to let me know he doesn't want to listen to any music. I always ask him if he had a good day at school. Most days he says "yea" and asks me if I had a good day at work. I love when he asks me that! We talk about what he did at school and what he ate for lunch. Occasionally we will sing or play eye spy.

Today Mason made a fruit loop necklace at school. He was so proud because he could match daddy now( daddy wears one of those necklaces that the baseball players wear.) I'm glad I took these before we left because there were no fruit loops left on the necklace by the time we got home.









I love the conversations that Mason and I have on the 20 minute ride home! Not everyday is this pleasant but I definitely want to remember days like this! It will be really interesting when Maddie starts chiming in on the conversation.

P.S. Mason had corn dogs for lunch today!!
