Daddy's Point of View

So my Labor Day weekend went fantastic I told my girls that I had 3 days off and they had this flamboyant look on their face. On Sunday we didn’t do much. We relaxed at home most of the day, watched movies and played a few games. I really never knew how energetic Jade was until we were playing gorilla mode (I’m playing the gorilla) for about 2 hours straight. We had our lunch and continued playing. On Monday we all woke up pretty early. Once we got up we brushed our teeth got ready and went to the park. As soon as we got to the park Annabelle ran directly to the swings, the last time I check Annabelle was afraid of the swing. She was yelling DA DA DA and started pointing at the swings. I was excited myself because she was excited and ready for the swings. Jade was riding the swings too, she was telling me “daddy I can swing by myself, I’m a big girl now”. When we got done playing with the swings we all ran around the jungle gym. I was acting like a gorilla and chasing them like I was a maniac. I told Jade and Annabelle that the gorilla is going to hang upside down from the monkey bars, so I showed them. They were laughing pointing at me and showing a lot of excitement, at that point I knew they have missed me a lot. On Tuesday as soon as the kiddos woke up they were already asking for breakfast. They ate some cereal and also some sopita (Mexican tomato soup). From there we relaxed for a little bit, I promised Jade and Annabelle that I would take them swimming today. So they were bugging me about it all morning. Jade has a great memory, anything you promise her she will remember until that promise has been taking care of. We ended up going swimming for about an hour. Jade was doing the same as usual (acting crazy) by diving under water, jumping into the pool, and holding her breath under water. Annabelle loves to swim, she likes to be independent and tries to do things on her own. I was helping Annabelle to try and swim on her own, but she wanted me to let her go. She loves to stick her head under water and paddle her feet. After we got done swimming we went back home and relaxed. Now that I have to go back to work tomorrow it’s going to suck because I’ve missed my kiddos so much. I have to give it up to my beautiful wife for raising such wonderful and energetic kids. A big thumbs up mommy, I really didn’t believe playing with my kids were going to get me tired but man I was exhausted this weekend. I love you Annabelle and Jade. I really appreciate the work my wonderful wife has done and continues to do.
