There’s nothing quite like seeing your children growing in visible and tangible ways. Most growth happens gradually, in subtle, unseen ways. But other changes occur with all the subtlety of a tractor-trailer lumering through your livingroom. Or over the lunch table in this instance.
It’s a Sunday afternoon and we’re sitting around our dinner table enjoying the semi-al fresco atmosphere of our screened porch and are being periodically entertained by the antics of our 1-yr.-old. It’s at the very moment that the conversation feels comfortable and familiar that our children enjoy popping out of the woodwork with something new.
We thought that something new was our 1 yr. old, Bear, sticking the end of a huge, mangled cob of corn in his mouth and cheekily posing for the camera.
It was like a one-two punch because as we were sitting there cracking up at his unexpected and surprisingly sophisticated antics, our 6 yr. old piped up with,
“Man, you guys, we need to blog this!”
All we could stutter between our efforts to suppress our giggles, “Sure, son. We’ll do that”
So here you have it.
