Saturday at the Craker Box Palace

Today we got up and hung out until mom got here. She watched Greyson while we went to see Maudy & Gail. That was very interesting but nothing I will go into here. we got home after a long day with friends at the meeting with them and Greyson seemed to have done well. He and mom were hanging out and watching TV etc....He was glad to see us though. He and Michele went outside and played tennis on the garage door for a while and then star wars light sabers after that. we then met Jerry, Anita, Jason and his new wife Nicole for some Azteca & margaritas. Can't beat that! Greyson did OK but was totally over the Mexican restaurant having Halloween decorations all over the place. He had a big vampire guy staring at him so he hid behind the menu for the entire dinner and would not come out. He did eat though, totally devouring his cheeseburger. He freaked though every time he saw that vampire. I am just glad he never looked up because they had these long black and orange streamers hanging from the ceiling that had black and orange spiders hanging down from them. That would have sent him over the edge...but we dodged that bullet! haha...for those of you who know him well...this I am sure is quite funny. (Well...funny but not....but it's OK) Later I went and visited with some of our friends while Michele stayed with Greyson. She was not in for a long night so I went on my way and we had a great time. Those 2 were asleep when I returned but she said he wasn't too upset with me. He doesn't like to go off to bed without one, but usually both, of us there. He managed and here we are at Sunday. today we will head our to Independence Park for a day with Equal families. It's a group of gay and lesbian parents that we meet in the park once a month so our kids understand that they are not the sole ones with either 2 mommies or 2 daddies. We love meeting with them so he can play with the others and share stories with the other parents. It's especially great because our core group of friends is childless so that makes them hard to talk to about certain things. Not because they aren't supportive and don't care. it's just because they have no understanding of some of what you deal with day to day. Heck some of them are probably thinking...You wanted a child so....there you have it! It's all good. I have no regrets as I have said before. It is nice to get help from people who are living what you are living at times as opposed to someone giving you the deer in the headlights look or rolling their eyes. haha... Well we are going to the Park for some fun. Update later for that...
