I visited Melissa and her 2 1/2 year old son Jimmy in Boston just for a weekend when I realized that I was kind of doing a little high school reunion tour during my travels. I didn't go to any of the formally planned ones (what is it, 5 yrs? 10?) but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in what's going on. Of course, because I'm not on Facebook (I know, I know) I was meeting boyfriends and husbands and babies and children for the first time.
Jimmy's one of the older kids in the group, and I measure that by the number of words he has in his vocabulary, which are 3 million. This is one talkative boy. I've included a clip of us waiting at the train station, where he's keeping us updated on the status of the train. The other pictures are from Aug-Sep, where I met up with Sonja, Misty, Kelly and Melyssa somewhere in California.
I also realize that I'm very fortunate to have so many friends who openly trust me with their kids, as I usually shower them with a very no-nonsense sort of unabashed aunty love.
Best thing I've heard so far? From Melyssa T's son Marley: "I love you all day."
