I don't spend hours with my great nephews; but, the time I do spend with them I try to make the most out of it.
On President's Day the boys were only over for a couple of hours but we spent the time talking, playing and having a good lunch. Callum loves to go up to my bedroom and get under the covers and cuddle - in a few years he will not want to do that so I always go up with him and we cuddle and tickle each other.
Ryan is always looking to see what holiday I am highlighting at the house and what have I cooked - he has an appreciation for food and a great palate for an 11 year old. And since it is February he is looking to determine what we are doing for vacation this year.
Although it was only a couple of hours - I gave my full attention to the boys, made sure that I had food they both enjoyed and showed them how much I loved them.
When you are with them - live for that moment and be in the present.
