"So, do you have any kids?"

(By Jen)

It's a question I get asked of often by some of my patients. 

My response: "Oh yes! I have THE cutest 2-year-old boy!  Wanna see a picture?"  The answer is always "yes."  ;)  I proceed to pull my phone out of my pocket and find the most recent and adorable picture of Noah.  They "ooooooh" and "ahhhhhh" and say "he looks like the most delectable little boy ever."  My heart swells with pride.  =)

What I SHOULD start doing, is to take pictures around the house - kinda like evidence - and then ask: "what do YOU think?"  ;)

Like a few of these for example, that I just so happened to capture on my phone.  See for yourself.  What do YOU think?  =)

Nose and lip prints on the window.  Cars lined up "just like the train outside, Mommy!"

 

"Look, Mommy!  I pushed all your handles up!" 

 

Found this under the fridge one night just before going to bed..... =) 

 

Found this one afternoon while dusting..... =) 

 

Went to get a mixing bowl one morning and found socks in his favorite hiding place.   

 

"Mommy, I put George in time-out." 

 

"Mommy, I picked out my own oatmeal!" 

 

Somebody found my heated mattress pad control and turned it all the way up on high - I found it late one afternoon..... it had been heating up my side of the bed for hours..... ;)

 

"Isn't my craft beautiful?"

 

"I wiped myself, Mommy!" 

 

 

L.O.V.E all of this. 

Wouldn't have it any other way or trade it for anything different. 

Ever.
