This kid.
So smart. So sweet. So sentimental.
The things that come out of his mouth never cease to amaze me.
{Unless it's spit bubbles or chewed up food.}
Today on a walk, he said,
"This grass is different than this one.
{Noticing the color; one brown, one green.}
Maybe this one got watered and this one did not."
He has been living out his dream playing doctor
to live patients instead of stuffed ones.
It has been a week of shared germs and miserable days for me and Andrew.
But our little sunshine doctor keeps offering up things to
"feel you better". He spent two days moving around the heating pad
for me because my whole body ached. He delivered dinner to bed for me.
He got me a pillow to sit on when we played together on the floor.
"Maybe this will feel you better?"
Such a good caretaker of his patients.
He loves to make his brother laugh.
And concurrently makes the house rattle
by stomping and jumping and clapping
to get Anderson's giggle going.
And he knows just what to do to make any of us crack a smile.
He knows when he pushes my buttons,
constantly makes me laugh...
My favorite thing he does is the
crazy dance-freeze frame-surprised face-scared octopus.
I even let him do it while standing on the furniture.
As crazy as he makes me some days
{the days when rest time isn't restful nor quiet,
when listening ears don't listen,
and a stubborn mom's boy is following in her footsteps...}
he is so fun, so easy to love!
And always, such a good big brother.
