And so went the countdown to Reggie's play date. Reggie is one of Daniel and Jeremy's new friends and he was instrumental in organising their first get together. He wrote a note to Steve and I to introduce himself and raise the possibility of a play date. He left his phone number and instructions to "Please call", he even threw in the tantalising tempter "ps - I have dogs and kittens!"
So play date number 1 was about 2 weeks ago, Reggie's dad came round, picked the boys up and took all three to the movies. And apart from the sweetie overload and massive sugar high that had Daniel bouncing off the walls, all was good.
Play date number 2 was last Saturday at our house. Reggie rang several times in the lead-up just to make sure all was on track. I mentioned we might make brownies and asked him if he would like that. He said yes and we moved on. About 10 minutes later he rang back. Some clarification was needed. Not only did he like making brownies, but he also liked eating them. I said cool - that was the plan Stan (even though I knew full well his name was Reggie)
So, 1:00 pm rolled around and the fun began! There was skate boarding, ice-cream eating, pumpkin carving (only Jeremy had the patience to stick this one out), brownie making and of course brownie eating.
Not a bad effort for our first play date!
