Four Year Old Baby

When I look at L, I see the tiny baby that came five weeks too early.  I look at his face and I see how far he has come in four short years.  Despite having to work with his food "issues" he really is a very bright, healthy and energetic (very energetic) four year old boy.  So really when I look at his sweet face I should see a four year old but I can't help it I still see my baby.

So today when we were finally done with school, play-dates, a walk to the bus and after-school activity pick-up L totally fell apart. Big real tears. The poor boy was just plain old wiped out!  L asked me to sit down with him and watch a show with him.  How could I not? I did not even bother to take off my coat.

What a great way to spend half an hour!  Feet up, watching the "Grinch" with my baby!!!
