This very handsome boy is Carter. I delivered this boy almost five years ago, although I do not like to use the word delivered. His MOM delivered him. I just caught him. His dad was busy on the phone with 911 so Larry helped. This little boy is a joy in our lives, as are his whole family.We began having "Locke dates," with the kids, kind of like "grandparents dates," but without the genes.
A couple of weeks ago we took his brother out on a Locke date. Ever since, Carter has been clamoring for his own turn. He called me at work one day to ask when he could come over for lunch. (The kid was determined.) So last Tuesday our little friend, armed with books, showed up at our door for reading, lunch, and making cupcakes.
And play.
We read books.
We sat him on the phone book to have lunch.
We made cuppies with his very own special spoon I bought him. He immediately had to print his name on the handle.
And then Brother Locke brought out this cool toy and the two of them played. I was enchanted.

How fun. That little boy is so lucky to have you guys as surrogate Grandparents. We are blessed to have a few people here in Vegas who can be surrogate Grandparents to our kids since their real grandparents live so far away. It really is quite a blessing.
PS that toy looks super cool. Curtis would love it!
