Things Boog gets excited about #23:
"Is nobody here?"
It's just us buddy.
"Can I eat breakfast in jammie pants?"
You can eat in your underwear if you want.
"Thank you! Thank you mommy!"
The rest of the family is at a softball tournament this weekend, so it;s just me and the Boog at home - and the dogs. Like most little kids, Boog doesn't like to wear clothes and any occasion to go naked or semi naked is a reason for excitement

I just want you
This morning as we were sitting outside of daycare, getting ready to go in, I reached back and unbuckled Boog's car seat. He was looking out the window, not paying attention. I put my finger up right by his nose to mess with him when he turned his head quickly. My fingernail got him just on the inside of his little nose and he looked like he wanted to cry, but didn't.
I told him I was sorry and that I was just trying to tease him and he said he knew and it was okay. So I said I'm not very good at this mommy thing, maybe we should find you a new one. And then he spoke the best words ever:
"Nah, I don't want a different one. I just want to stay with you."
Me too buddy, me too...

The Accidental Perfect Photo
Sometimes you go to take a picture of your child and they move, the angle wasn't right, the sun was in the way, you forgot to move your fat ass fingers out of the way of the lens, whatever, something happens and it's not the picture you wanted. Sometimes it's a photo of the ground or an unflattering look at your double chin...
But sometimes, it's perfect. It's not the picture you were going for, but it's great anyway...You catch them at a moment that makes you look at them and then back at the world with a new attitude for the day...
It doesn't matter that they told you 8 times that morning to "leave me 'lone" or that the stomped their feet like a whole herd of rhinos when you told them they couldn't wear their blue and red Spiderman shorts with their green Polo shirt or that they asked you eleven billion times to "turn something on for me" while they ate their breakfast when all you were trying to do was grab yourself some yogurt...
