Lovey guy

Mr. A has been a cuddle bug all week long. Just wanting time in my lap or by my side to hang out "togedder" and cuddle. I've heard a lot of I-lub-you's, not just for me, but also Daddy and Z, and his cookie monster stuffed animal, and Elmo, and Princess the dog, etc. Grandma got more of the same at her house yesterday. There's been a lot of "lub" and we've all been loving it.

This picture reminds me of what a ham (can you practically hear him saying "Cheese"?) and sweet child he is.

Then, there are those days, like today, where Mr. A wakes up early and on the wrong side of the bed, and I know it's going to be a long, long day. I put him down for a nap at 11am (usually it's closer to 1pm) today because he was just a cranky and sad guy. Lots of tears for little things like not being able to turn the water on by himself when it was time to wash hands. So, off to bed he went. And fortunately, he crashed within minutes of me shutting his door, although I won't be surprised if he managed to push himself and all of his blankets and stuffed animal friends onto the floor before sleep consumed him.

My wonderful, lovey boy. *sigh* I guess we both need to get enough sleep to wind our way through the good days and the not-so-good days too. Still, I will always lub you.
