One for the Memory Book

When we were visiting in Crystal Lake we went out to eat at a really good local eatery called "Andy's". The food was really good and the place had a 1950's atmosphere. When we were finished eating I noticed the table next to ours ordered ice cream and it came in those old time metal dishes and looked really good. I asked Paige if I could order Aaron some chocolate ice cream and she said "ok". So I had the waitress bring him a bowl and he took a couple of bits and looked up at me and said "Mimi, I wuv you". Too cute.

It is amazing how some memories are embedded in our brains. I have another memory of Aaron that always makes me smile when I think about it. We were having a bridal shower for Drew and Lindsay in the cafeteria of the middle school. I was all the way across the cafeteria from the entrance. Paige and Aaron came in the door. Aaron saw me across the room and started running, as good as an almost 2 year old can run, shouting "Mimi, Mimi" the whole way across the room and he was running and looking down at his little feet and pumping his little arms until he ran and jumped into my arms. It brought tears to my eyes then and does to this day
