It's gotten hot. And I am not complaining about it really, but it's affecting Jackson a bit. He was exhausted today and yesterday, I'm a little concerned he's coming down with something. Bad time of year to be sick. I am very glad we have the central air this summer, I am not sure how we managed without it for so many summers. It's funny that in the winter we long for summer but then the heat comes and we complain. So I am not complaining, I am trying to enjoy it. Of course sitting outside in a puddle of sweat is not really that much fun. So we try and do the outside stuff in early morning and after dinner. Of course I'd rather just stay in, in general I'd rather stay in. I am not so much of a social person I guess. I don't mind that but I know it's harder for Jackson, so I do what I have to for him.
Last weekend we got together with a little friend of his from daycare, he's going off to school and his mom is determined to maintain connections for him, so there will be play dates in the future. It was fun, but 4 hours at the park/splash pad was a little much for me.
We have new neighbours to move in soon, and the other side both houses are for sale, so I am hoping, really hoping, for a kid or two his age. I do want him to have friends, and having playmates is important. As well as a small break for mommy. I know that I need some small breaks, but still feel guilty.
Tonight he's gone to sleep early, he was asleep by 7:30 which is very unusual. Yesterday he actually had a nap! He hasn't had a nap for me in months. So he is either not feeling well or it's the heat. I am hoping he stays asleep all night, and there are no early morning wake ups.
