Mama in New England

This is us, as I navigate motherhood and enjoy the amazing adventure.

We are a family of four, a cat and a dog, living outside Boston, Massachusetts. I started this blog as a way to update friends and family who are afar, but it seems to have become somewhat therapeutic & helps me laugh when I need to.

"Boyz"

Right now Sam is obsessed with his "boys" at daycare.  These little guys are the friends he has made.  If you ask him about the girls he loses focus and gets distracted.  When he drives down the street to his new daycare, he starts yelling, "boysszz..!" and waving his arms.  Upon arrival a couple of them will run up to him with toys and the older ones with say, "Sam" as they hold out their offering.  When we ask him about his day, he tells us, "boys. Cars."  Sometimes he tries to name them, which comes out like "Woey" which is "Joey," and "Mus" which is "Shamus."  I ask him about the little girls there, Amelie and Annabelle, and he looks at me blankly and starts doing something else.
Chris took him to the playground the other day with another dad and his daughter Lily.  Sam paid no attention to her at all, even when she gave him a hug and a kiss.  The next day, I took him to the playground with another little girl.  The only time Sam noticed that she existed, is when she was in the Cozy Coupe car next to him.  Otherwise he really was not impressed with her presence.  I'm not sure how he even knows the difference between the sexes right now or what the fascination with the boys is, but he no longer cries when he is dropped off in the morning, so we'll take what we can get.
