My Knight in Shining Armor… or dirty t-shirt and shorts
Amy July 16th, 2010
Yesterday afternoon, after being cooped up in the car most of the day, the boys and I played outside for a while. Cam’s choice of activities? Playing knights. He handed out swords to me, Jax, and kept one for himself. He then dubbed us, Mommy the Bravest, Jackson the Littlest Bravest, and Camden the Bravest. And then he would point out the bad guys and we would all Charge! and attack them. The ones further down the driveway I was content to let the boys kill, but I would dutifully do my part by the garage. And I have to say that running and “killing” the bad guys was a great stress reliever. I think I’ll suggest this activity more often.
Well, on one of his sojourns down the driveway, Cam found something pretty for Mommy. So he stopped going after the bad guys to bring me a surprise. Once he got up to me, he bowed down in front of me and held up a flower and said, “This is for you, Mommy the bravest”. My hero! I love this age!!!!!
