Cole and I got to go to the Jazz game last Monday night where they played the Kings.
Kevin's brother got tickets, the week before Kevin and him went to a game and than he text Kev and said he had tickets for that night.
So Kevin said he thought I should take Cole. Well I told him I thought he should take Cole. I didn't think I should leave Tayson that long and the girls being sick I just didn't really want to go. Not that I didn't want to go hang out with Cole but the day was crazy and I needed to go grocery shopping and get things ready for Cole's field trip the next morning.
I gave all my excuses and Kev said your going. He went grocery shopping for me and than I met him at his work. We switched cars and he took the kids home and fed them dinner. He is so great!
Cole and I took off downtown. We bought food at the game since we didn't want to be to late. As we all know stadium food is a rip off but the russell's ice cream we shared at half time was delicious.
Cole was so much fun to hang out with just one on one. He told me how much fun he was having. I know he needs that one on one time as do I.
He is such a fun and good kid and I know he was enjoying having his Mom all to himself.
By the fourth quarter Cole was getting tired. I wanted to stay and told him just a little longer than it went into OT. So we left early.
As we were walking out we passed a homeless man. Cole held my hand. He didn't want to hold my hand when we went in so I figured he was a little afraid.
We were standing at the cross walk with this other man who hit the button so that the light would change. The light did and the little bird chirped for us to walk. We were half way through the street and the man was a few steps in front of us. I saw this lady in the turn lane. I thought she saw us and than she kept driving. She hit the man who was a few steps in front of us. It was dark and I don't think she saw him. He spun around but didn't fall down. I stopped and asked if he was ok and he said he was and the lady unrolled her window asked if he was ok and than drove off. I didn't know what to do. I said oh I think you should pull over but I don't think she heard me. It knocked her side mirror off her car but I don't think she even knew.
Cole and I were really scared. Cole was on that side of the street. I felt bad but I am so glad that it wasn't Cole.
Cole and I were pretty shaken and so was the guy and I am sure the poor lady driving!
Later Cole said that was so crazy Mom!
I was so glad to be safe in our car and heading home.
Cole said Mom we read a story about that guy. I thought he meant about the guy getting hit, but he said it was about a guy with no home or money.
We talked a bit and even though things were a little crazy it was nice to have a date night with Cole when I called it a date night Cole laughed and said let's call it a hang out! But I kept calling it a date night just to get the reaction out of him.
I sure love that boy!
