Yesterday we celebrated two years with little Marty. Two years. Wow! He does a great fire engine imitation and I just knew he'd love to visit here. We walked into town where Firefighter Sean generously let Marty climb around this and the ladder truck.
He was loving life!
I really thought he was excited about his carrot cake, but in fact it was the candle blowing that he loved. So much so, that he wanted to do it over and over again. See below, the cake is already cut and served and this might be his fourth time blowing out these same two candles. That was his best part. Until ...
opening this gift. Thank you Grandma for his very favorite new thing.
This situation is much better. On review of that post, I sounded much more cool about it than I think I really was. It's hard having him (who never cried too much) be so unhappy in such an intense way. But he really is mostly over it. We love this little two year old guy so much. He is becoming such a new person; really stretching himself these last few weeks.
The day was wonderful all around. To quote Marty: "YAY!"
