2009_06_04 Thursday

I couldn't be prouder of Jonathan. plain and simple. He's so amazing.

We met Grisel/Lucas today to start a 2yo playgroup. Grisel is very nice; her house is insanely gorgeous; and Lucas and Jonathan seemed to get along as well as any 2yos would. Amy/son also attended, and they were also really nice. Laura/son came toward the end, but I hardly got to talk to her b/c I was on the phone with contractors by then. Jonathan did a great job sharing and taking turns. It was neat to see. We stayed for about 2 hours before coming home.

The contractors were here finishing off the floors, so we can't walk on them until they dry (Saturday?). There's a second coat coming tomorrow. The house is pretty dusty again, but now I can't even access the vacuum!

Since I can't access any kitchen items and Dave was going to be late today, I decided to visit a higher-end restaurant for a nice, relaxing dinner. Jonathan was fantastic. We sat outside to ensure his attention was engaged (and we didn't bother any other patrons). I had a lobster gnocchi that was to die for. Jonathan had a very fancy gormet pizza with olives, which he can now say. He waved at anyone walking by, and he blew kisses to our waitress and the manager and chef. He said "thank you" to the busboy for water for me, bread for us, etc. He even said something very close to "I want to take this spoon [the restaurant's] in the car." He was a perfect gentleman. And, our waitress and 2 patrons commented to me how amazingly well behaved he was. It absolutely made my day, and I felt like I was glowing from the inside with pride.
