We went to the park, this evening after dinner.
That boy right there has found his courage. He tried to climb anything with a rung for him to hang on to. Ladders, slides, jungle gyms, etc. When he couldn’t quite climb the jungle gym (blame the short arms and legs), he started eating it…
He was trying to climb it to get to daddy, who was perched up top. It was a pretty big domey jungle gym. Not even the big one could get up on his own.
Speaking of the big one; he’s turning five, this June. FIVE! I thought the day would never come. All those long nights I wished he would just grow up already! and now he’s turning FIVE and I want him to be tiny again. He’s sassy and talks back. His hair is always a mess. His room is always a mess. He says big words and he scolds ME when I interrupt him.
But.
He’s also smart. He tells ridiculous jokes and dances like a crazy-person. He lets me win card games and take his picture. He was the first.
Congrats to the winners!! I love the pics, you always take such beautiful photos! Have a wonderful Monday!
xoxo~Meg

I think it’s crazy they have like no concept of height. He can walk to the edge of something that’s like 3 times as tall as he is. That’d be the equivalent of me walking on the roof and…well, I wouldn’t consider that fun!
