So, on Monday, we decided to take little boy-boy and mui-mui to the annual fair in Vancouver (aka PNE). It was more like hubby W wanted to do it as a tradition. I didn't grow up in Vancouver so never really had that tradition. Anyway, I only agreed to go if it was on a day that wasn't crowded. So, that was Monday.
We didn't expect much and maybe that's a good thing. Did the usual Marketplace look-about, buying something that we probably use once or never - that was the Crystal nail file this year. We also bought tix to win PNE prize home. Figured that we probably wouldn't win 'cuz usually someone who doesn't need it wins.
Missed out on all the concerts but got to bring boy-boy on the rides. We took him last year too but he really didn't understand them as much. But, what a diff one year makes! He just couldn't wait to get on the rides. He went on the cars, boat, merry-go-round, etc. And then, we got the milestone. He and a couple of friends went on the elephant (Dumbo) ride ALL by themselves. It was a *gasp* moment. It was like a a flash peek into the future. I really didn't know what to think. He was just having such a good time. It's just so priceless and totally makes me happy to be a parent.
