A Day-Long Case of...

The Giggles! That's what my son awoke with today. He "talked" all morning. I swear he sounded like a rock star warming up his voice, lips, and tongue before rocking a packed stadium. He babbled and rambled so much it was ridiculous. And set himself into fits of laughter at the various sounds each time.

He stood beside me, arm around my leg, patting and rubbing it, while I washed my coffee pot to make the necessary morning nectar. He hugged me around my thighs while I poured his milk. He gave fist bumps, high fives, and hugs to pretty much everyone all day. Me. His Dad. The waitress. Another customer at the restaurant. The lady at Target. The lady at Fantastic Sams.

He woke from his nap. Laughing. He played with his bears and blankets. He talked to himself. He was having so much fun and was so happy, I was reluctant to go get him. We went to the park with friends and a piece of cake. He loved making a loop up the stairs and down the slide. He would even intentionally not put his feet down at the bottom so he would fly off the slide and land on his tush! Then giggle, of course.

We had way too much fun today! Days like this not only feel so blessed to be a mom, HIS mom, but get me through the rough moments and days when I'd like to string him up by his toenails...

I love my giggly boy!
