2 yr olds

I'm convinced two year olds are what we would all be if we weren't so good at hiding our emotions, thoughts, and sins. My first 2 yr old was a saint in my eyes. I would tell people, "I don't know what people mean by 'terrible twos', perhaps they just don't know how to discipline." ha. My second two year old could not have been more opposite. We later found out he had some severe health problems. That year and pretty much  the entire next year...shudder. So my third two year old has made me marvel and laugh, and sometimes not laugh ;).

Some of the things my two year old did today:
snuggled into me on the couch
jumped on the couch
fell off the couch
sobbed to be cuddled
cried for food that he had already been offered
ate breakfast
prayed standing up in his chair
fell out of chair
cried for kisses on his booboo
told me I kissed the wrong finger
stuck his middle finger up at me for me to kiss
cried as we arrived at home school group because he doesn't like to be away from home
begged for a snack
snuck a big smile at me as he painted with glue to decoupage during art
begged for another snack
cried as we left for the park because he didn't want to leave home school group
watched a red eared slider swim asking me to repeat over and over his name
touched a bull snake, he was so brave! (this was part of home school group in a nature preserve with guides to help with the animals :)
asked me to push him on a tire swing
asked me to push him faster
smiled in his own little world as he flew on the tire swing
cried because he didn't want to go home
panicked as we were getting in the car because he needed to go potty
cried as he woke up from nap so I would carry him and cuddle him
jumped on the couch
fell off the couch
asked if he could have cookies for dinner
sat like a good boy all through "bed time church" (wed night advent service)
fell off pew after service ended
ran like a wild cowboy to the car
kissed me goodnight

oh how I love my 2 yr old. :)
