Exciting week.

I've spent the morning daydreaming about spring break.  Being a single and working mother, I don't get to spend as much quality time with the child as either of us would like.  I spend time with him, but lately it seems spent correcting tone of voice, hollering about video games, arguing about dinner and whether or not he should eat it, talking about poop, loose teeth, insisting he wear socks, convincing him to wear tee shirts.  We are ready for spring.  Last year we flew out west to visit Sarah in South Dakota.  This year we go east.  Our grand plan is centered around an Amtrak trip.  We will visit Ioanna in Washington, D.C., and Dorger in New York City.  Grannie Annie may be joining us on our adventure this time.  One of the highlights of the trip will be a self-guided Ghostbuster's tour of NYC.  Spring Break '12, WOOOO-STER!!
