Movie Night with Chase

Friday night, Chase and I went to the dollar show and saw Space Monkeys. We rarely get out just the two of us so we were both pretty excited. We stopped off and bought the candy - then got our popcorn and soda at the show. As we sat down, I looked over - little him sitting in this big theater seat that looked as if he could be swallowed by it at any moment (ha)... I whisphered, "hey if you ever feel like coming over and seating with me you can".. He says "REALLY.. CAN I?" He was so excited and plopped right into my lap. I figured it would last all of 5 minutes. Instead we sat that way the entire show. It was so nice to sit together... to hug and hold him. We laughed a lot. What a fun night. I think we both needed it. It's amazing how life changes from 1 to 2 kids. I wish I could dedicate more one-on-one moments like these. Upon leaving, Chase said..."Mom, I love you" ... (wow~that was all I needed to hear). What's that commercial? .... movie $2, candy $4, spending an evening eating bad popcorn and enjoying a cheap kids flick with your son... PRICELESS.
