Father's Day

Wesley wanted to take Mia to the Mavs parade downtown on Thursday.  The Dallas Mavericks are the 2011 NBA Champions, so they were having their very own parade.  Over a quarter of a million people were expected to attend.  The city of Dallas urged people to take public transportation because there wouldn't be enough parking for everyone.  Wes and Mia were going to ride the DART train into downtown.  Unfortunately, even though they went to a few different train stations, the trains were full to capacity and weren't allowing anyone else to get on.  Wes was disappointed but decided they would have a fun day, anyway.  He and Mia went to the park to play, and he kept her home with him for the rest of the day for some Daddy/daughter time.  I'm glad that he likes to spend time with her and take her to do things without me sometimes.  I think it's important for them to have a strong one-on-one bond. 

Mia made a Father's Day hat for Wes at daycare.  He wore it for her which was really sweet.  She also helped to make him a card at daycare.  Mia and I took him to his favorite Salvadoran restaurant for a Father's Day meal on Friday.  Then, we all went to Home Depot so that he could get a new edger for doing lawn work.  We love him so much!
