Why can't we slow down time? Maybe not the moments when Wylie is crying because he is both hungry and needs a nap, but isn't contented by either offering, and Finn is breaking every rule, including ones we have yet to lay out for him. But, how about those perfect moments when all four of us are happy and in the moment and enjoying each other? Like when Finn is leaning against me reading a book and noticing things I hadn't even noticed. Or when Wylie, Mom, Finn, and I rolled a ball back and forth and Wylie thought it was hilarious. We are lucky to have had a lot of those moments during the past two weeks of Winter Break.
Today Wylie was grouchy because of his stinky cold, but still managed to enjoy some fun time hanging out with Finn, Jason, and me, playing with his new Christmas toys and doing his best to get his hands, or mouth, on his brother's toys. "Uh oh" may go on record as his first word. He seems to be on the verge of turning his "da da da's" and "ba ba ba's" into real words.
