How you pull me and Dad’s hands together to make us hug, apart to make us step back and then together again…over and over. Then you stand back and smile. It’s awesome.
That you threw your first object (your little Crocs) from the back seat into the front. Ok you didn’t exactly throw it. You kicked with excitement and tossed it out of your car seat. It just so happened to land in the seat next to me!
That you now pull my ladybug apron off the stove and hand it to me 2 and 3 times in an evening and want me to put it on!
That one night your Dad and I read you the book “I love you through and through” at least 25 times. You handed it to us in the kitchen, the living room and before bedtime.
That you LOVE getting ice cream and I think your favorite part is sharing Daddy’s waffle cone!
That our green laundry basket is your new favorite place to sit!
That the first time I heard you say dog…you were carrying your stuffed dog around the house by his foot and you tried to put him in the cat liter box! We still haven’t convinced you that it’s yucky!!
That you started talking a lot …most of it sounds like gibberish…but you’re trying anyway!! Besides dog, we got yucky and go and I got it!!
That you like having the itsy bitsy spider sang to you...over and over and over again!
You were mesmerized by the train at the Mills Mall.
Watching you drag your backpack/diaper bag through the house…
Watching you play under our dining room table…and listening to the Laurie Berkner CD I bought you and dancing around your room!
How much you look like a little boy after you latest haircut!
The cutest kiss ever that you gave me while I pushed you around Walmart in a cart.
That you throw your stuffed animals out of your crib when you’re going to sleep
That you want to sit in the stroller in the church nursery the entire time you are in there otherwise you cry.
That you smack your hands on your thighs when you are frustrated with something…or really excited about something. Lately this has been followed by "I Got it!"
That you have started taking me into the kitchen when you are hungry…and pushing my hand on the counter to say you are hungry. No matter how much I say…hungry? Food? Or snack…you never actually say anything.
That every set of photos I have of you…you always have one where you are in deep thought about something
That when you were sick you wanted to lay your head on your Dadda’s shoulder at the doctor’s office
That when you are sick you could ask me for anything and I’d give it to you if it made you feel better…
That you watch Dadda cut grass from the front door every time he mows…and you follow him from the living room to the breezeway and back again.
You make me laugh everyday! Even on our family's crabbiest, most tired, unmotivated days...you still find a way to make me smile and laugh!!
