Today was one of the days I love. A day where I can actually see and spend sometime with my brothers. About ninety-five percent of the time I'm at work before they get home and by the time I get back they are in bed. Today was different though. I was off around 8 which meant I could spend quality time with the boys. I helped Cole out some with his project and Mason and I read to a certain degree.
He recognizes some words already. He brought me a book that he could "read". He is hardly reading though. He memorizes what people say to him. It is extremely clever. He "read" me the entire book without a problem. After I figured out that he memorized the book I grabbed something different. He can sound words out and read them but he is obnoxiously stubborn. When he is done with something there isn't any way to change his mind. It was awesome just hanging out with him and seeing him learn.
After we stopped reading we went to his room and we watch Transformers or rather just his favorite part of Transformers. It was late so I had to come to bed myself. It's heart wrenching to think that in just a few more weeks I won't be able to do these things anymore. The sleep overs in my room won't happen, watching their favorite movies before bed, teaching them rugby and showing them all my crazy bruises, wrestling and goofing off, and just seeing them grow up. I'll even miss this stupid dog that messes up my bed and gets in my stuff all the time.
I'm going to miss my brothers the most.
