super fun bath


I heard happy screams and delighted laughter from the tub this morning. David came in to tell me that he let Dennis put on his snorkel gear to take his bath this morning. He told me all about his scuba bath, so proud that he was "a real scuba diver now". Didn't tell him about air tanks and regulators and certification classes--he's got a few years yet!

Today I spent coughing so much that I actually hurt. Dennis was again patient with my need to lie around. He napped easily and long today, so I wonder if he's a bit under the weather as well. It could just actually be the weather, rainy and cold, depressingly gray out--he's always subdued on rainy days. When he did wake from his nap, David was home for lunch break and heard him calling me (I didn't hear). When I noticed the light on, I went in and Dennis told me "I called and called you Mommy" and I apologized for not hearing him when he asked "were you too busy coughing to hear me?". Yep, that's about right.

Today he was thankful for "the drinks that I drink". Yesterday it was his wagon. It's nearly time to take down the November 'thankful' tree and put out the Advent calendar (which I organized yesterday). Time's just racing toward Christmas now!
