Philanthropy, Fun & Father's Day

Ace and I took a long weekend to go to San Antonio while Daddy was working. Honey bought POUNDS of candy for Ace to hand out in the factory at Sashi's work. I was really nervous because we just started focusing on sharing with Ace and here we were asking him to share CANDY! He made us so proud. He told them "I name Ace" and that he was two. He said "You're welcome" to everyone.

We managed to fit in a lunch date with Pierson and mommy-Kate. Pierson really wanted to hold Ace's hand. They played "Ring Around the Rosies" and sat in the store windows together. Thanks for a delightful lunch!
After a nap, Ace continued his philanthropic work by delivering Honey's cookies to the Ronald McDonald house. First we ask him to share candy and then we asked him to give away COOKIES!
Saturday morning, Ace went out to help Sashi paint the new building that the Lighthouse for the Blind bought to house their navy jacket manufacturing operations. He wanted to paint everything but the building so we didn't stay long.
This morning, he visited the firemen right down the street from Honey and Sashi's house. He loved climbing all over the truck and said "Thank you firemen" in the sweetest voice when we left.
Before we left, Ace got to ride the train around the park. He insisted he saw bunny rabbits, a fox and a bear. This kid has a wild imagination.

We had such a wonderful weekend. Thank you Honey and Sashi for all of the yummy dinners, the Noah's Ark toys and to Honey for kissing Ace's bo-bo and making it feel (according to Ace) "all better." We love you.
