I heart little boys

My little boy has changed my perspective on a lot of things. Daegen is a high energy kid. Every where I go I get a comment about how active he is. They say "he is the most active little boy I've seen", Or "Wow he never stops" , or "Does he ever get tired?". To me Daegens energy is very normal , I don't know any different. But all I know is I'm very tired by 6:30 his bed time.
But when he is in bed I get to think of our day and I get to tell Brock of all the fun things Daegen has learned or done that day. Life will never be looked at the same now that I see it through a little boys perspective.
I look at cars differently every big truck I see I now hear "CAAARRR". Or Playing out side when its kinda cold and maybe sprinkling I see it as an opportunity to go play with rocks and the out side toys. I even (believe it or not) will put my child in unmatched clothes. Either his shirt is dirty or his pants are wet and I'll just throw what I have on him because we all know that there just going to get dirty again anyways and he could careless what he is wearing.
Playing with the kitchen supplies brings another diminution to his toys and why wouldn't you want to bring more life to your boring toys. We also love finding his cars in our cups or pots and pans. He loves hiding his toys in the kitchen cupboards.
He now also will pick up my computer and bring it over to me saying baby, baby so I can show him Babies. He likes the Movie trailer of the "babies" movie coming out. He always smiles and then gives the babies kisses.
The best thing about Daegen is he is always up for a good laugh. He will tease you and laugh and smile. Our new joke is he will pretend he is sleeping and he will say Honk shew, honk shew. and I'll look back at him and say Wake up you sleepy head. and he laughs hysterically. He loves it.
I love Daegen and I'm very grateful for him. Last night he had a hard night , not sure what was going on but he wasn't settling down. So I held him and tickled his tummy (he loves this) then I scratched his back and we talked about our day. I told him he was such a sweet boy and how it was so nice he gave G.G. a big kiss, then he laughed. I told him how much mommy and daddy loved him , he sighed. I went on and on about everything we did that day and somethings he would laugh and then some times he would make a little noise. It was a trying day but the night made up for it.
We love you Daegen. Thank you for bringing a new perspective to our life.
