OK, mommy entry.
Have I mentioned that I adore my little Simon? Sometimes AJ and I just look at him and go, "Where did you come from?" OK, we know where he came from, biologically speaking. It's just so amazing that we have this gorgeous little person in our lives. He's been making us laugh since he was just a wee little baby. He's the happiest boy I've ever met- even when he's sad or tired, he's trying to be happy. He gives sweet kisses, and his smile makes me melt. We have no idea why God blessed us with such an amazing kid, but there have been many days when he was the only bright spot we could see in our lives. He has no idea how tough things get sometimes- he just keeps on being his little sweet self. It's so great!
I keep saying "little," but he's a big boy- big for his age, anyway. He's just turned 16 months old, but he's as big as most 2-year olds we meet. He's outgrowing a lot of his 18-month size clothes already. Sometimes I worry that him being so big means that people will think he's older than he is, and then they'll expect too much from him. When he wasn't walking at 12 months it was normal for his age, but strangers would ask if he was, and they'd look very concerned when we said "no"- they admitted that they thought he was closer to 16 months. No, he's not talking yet- he's fine. He's too young to understand any of that- I just hope the other kids catch up before preschool. ; )
My big/little boy just went to bed, but he's not asleep yet. He's having trouble with that these days, maybe because of those teeth that still haven't come through yet. Poor little guy... I want to make it all better.
So very sad is my boy!
