Tonight, hubby and I went to a meeting for parents with active children. The group of six parents was brought together by the social worker (now retired) who facilitated the adoptions of our children. She had seen us at our annual Christmas party and we had all made comments about how active our children are. So out of the goodness of her heart, she is donating her time to help us get our group organized. We will be meeting once a month at a local library and discussing, amoung other things, the book Raising Your Spirited Child. Tonight, although just the first meeting, left most of us feeling a lot better.
When we got home, Peanut was still up so I put him to bed. Part of his bed time ritual is that I lay down with him and read him a book and sing him a song. Tonight, as usual, I was saying goodnight and when I said, "I love you," Peanut said, "What you say?" So I repeated, "I love you." Peanut smiled and said, "Even when your naughty!" Guess I've been saying that a lot. I'm glad he knows I love him regardless of his behavior.
Another cute story...
Today at nap time (same ritual as bedtime), I was really tired after work so I started to drift off. The next thing I know I feel something being set gently on my face...it was Peanut's favorite stuffed animal, "Fish." A few minutes later, I felt some tugging and then a blanket being laid over me. My baby was trying to make my "nap" comfortable. I love that kid!!!
