Our boys make me laugh, quite frequently. Sometimes Wesley does something that I laugh over only to find out that he wasn't intending to be funny and I have hurt feelings to repair. Sunday proved to be a day of good laughs though, and I'd like to write them here lest I forget.
Driving home from Grandma's Wesley was looking out the window and randomly quipped 'Happy Easter Mom!' and then resumed his sight seeing.
A few blocks later he out of the blue faked a sneeze and said ' I'm allergic to cars!' Miles found this hilarious and started laughing. The whole thing was too much for Phil and I to handle and we laughed hysterically and drove home through our fits of laughter and tears.
Miles is finally starting to pick up on sign language. Last week he figured out how to sign nurse. Now when he wants to nurse he pumps his little fist high up in the air, signs milk while grining like a bobcat.
Last night I asked him if he wanted to go ni-night. 'Ta' was his response. I replied back 'can you say ni-night?' Faced with a blank stare I signed it for him by pressing my hand against my cheek. When I asked if he could sign ni-night he took leaned forward and pressed his little hand to my cheek and said ni-ni.
Children are such a delight and we are so blessed to have them. The other night Phil and I were trying to figure out what we did for the first 23 months of marriage before our family started. We were coming up rather empty handed. I am glad that we will our kids to help us mark the years together. And I certainly look forward to the funny things that are to come. With four children there should be an abundance of things to chuckle over!
