Starting the Day with a Bottle of OJ

And that is the way it happened.

Landon spent the night last night and wanted to sleep in the Big Bed with Mamaw, but he asked for the 'switcheroo' which always means Papaw will be there when he wakes up and Mamaw will be sleeping in the bed in Aunt Megan's room.  Well, the 'switcheroo' didn't happen last night, and when he woke up, I was still there.

I vaguely remember him waking up and checking to see if Papaw was in the other bed.  Then I heard him padding down the steps as I rolled over and shut my eyes again.

The next thing I knew Landon was standing beside the bed holding a bottle of Trop 50 in front of my face. What????

He started to laugh, the said "Look, Mamaw!  Look at Papaw!" Gary came up the steps, carrying a tray.

What a feast!  A box of glazed donuts.  A bowl of strawberries/raspberries covered with vanilla yogurt and sprinkled with granola.  A individual cup of Fruity Pebbles.  A small bottle of chocolate milk.  A small bottle of white milk.  A bowl of strawberry mini-wheats.

All this time, Landon is grinning from ear to ear, and he said "It's breakfast in bed for you, Mamaw!"

Gary said later that it was all Landon's idea.  We found out that he wanted to do something similar for his mommy and daddy and tried the previous weekend but he had trouble carrying things upstairs.  What they had to do was put a donut on each of two plates and he carried one and Tessa carried the other upstairs for their folks.

What a sweetie he is!  That made my morning, my day, my week, my month!  I love that little guy so much, and I have missed his staying overnight with us.  I am very blessed, that's for sure! 

We have a plan.  The next time we stay overnight at his house, Landon will fix Breakfast in Bed for his folks, with help.  They will be in for a treat!
