Much Needed One on One

My parents came down for a quick weekend trip last week and were heading back home on Sunday afternoon and Bradock, realizing that Papa and Mamaw were going to be leaving him, started begging to go with them. Well, my mom was planning on driving back down on Wednesday, so she thought why not?!...Bradock could come stay with them for a couple days. So, off my little boy went to a very cold and snowy Grandma and Papa's house. This left little Miss Ray Ray with her two parents all to herself. Let me just say she was in heaven. I can't believe how different she is when Mr. B is not around. She was sweet, happy, entertained herself and was just a delight. Now, I'm not saying she's not those things when Bradock is around, but they are rare moments and get outshined by all the screaming, crying and hitting that those two engage in together. It was such a nice few days to hear nothing, but happiness and quiet. My mom said the same of Bradock as well. He was just the sweetest, best little boy.

I think these two are going to need some very special one on one time more often. They just seem to be in a stage where they are constantly competing for mine or Brett's attention. I know they have completely opposite personalities and are really close in age, but I am hoping that this stage will pass and they will be good friends someday...hopefully soon.
