I say it all of the time: One of the best parts about having kids is seeing things through your innocent, awestruck eyes. We were playing in our front yard this afternoon when you spotted an ant in the driveway. You then spent the next five minutes squatting down to watch it, following it across the driveway and trying to feed it blades of grass. JieJie, already a little jaded at age 5, got bored and said, "Can you stop looking at the ant? Let's go play!" You were fascinated by the ant, though, and turned to me and marveled, "The ant so cute! It so tiny!" You also asked me, "Can I step on it?" I said no and you said ok and continued to observe it.
In other news, Daddy turned 37 today! We celebrated at home with cheesecake and homemade carrot cake cookies with coconut cream cheese frosting.
Love,
Mom
