Friends from church had a baby boy this past weekend, and today Colin and I headed over to their house to deliver dinner to them. As we drove over, I explained to Colin that he would get to see both baby and baby's older brother (who is just a yr older than Colin).
We caught them just before they got home, so we left dinner at the door. And Colin WAILED for about 15 minutes the entire way home because he didn't get to see his little friend. He was so disappointed! I had "played up the visit" ("You'll get to see your friend"), and when his friend wasn't home, tears just flooded his sweet blue eyes.
He doesn't have the words yet to say it, but he was so disappointed. His little mind understands so much of what we say, and I know he wanted to just say, "But you promised me, mom!"
Yes, we're going to see our friends tomorrow : )
