While nursing Hen, near the big windows that look down on the somewhat busy road....Little Hen hears a bus sound (yeah, he can tell the sound...)He promptly stops nursing, sits up and points to the window and says, "I sawwa bus!" :) His first sentence. Yeah, technically he heard a bus, but still. :)
J bought us a guitar this week. (aww man! it's sooooo awesome to have a playable guitar in the house again!) The night he brought it home Little Owl climbed right up next to us to get in on the music and conversation. I teasingly asked J if we should name it. (the guitar) You can imagine the look he gave me! But little Owl says, "It's name is Black-eyed Pea." He smiles and looks at me to see what I think. Yeah, baby....that's a great name. :) (and sorry J...i guess it does have a name now.)
In the car, J and I overhear the boys talking to each other. It's dusk and Cricket says, "The days just go so fast! We hardly played at all today." Badger replies, "No, that's not entirely true. It just feels that way because we spent time with Grandma and Grandpa today. And that was really nice, wasn't it?" Cricket says, "Yeah it really was." :)
There was also a time when we were doing something really ordinary. Like so ordinary that I can't even remember what we were doing, but in the middle of it Cricket said to me, "I'm so glad you are my mama." And I just stopped and kissed him. That was the best part of my week. :)
all blessed words....all make me smile.....
