Sweet Smile


So, Tyler absolutely LOVES our cat, Gumby. Every time Tyler sees him, he gets a big happy smile on his face. If Ty is on the floor, he'll try to lunge toward Gumby; if he's in his high chair, he'll completely forget that he's eating and look all around for the cat! Usually, Gumby runs away from him :) Well, yesterday morning, I had Tyler on my lap and we were sitting on the couch in the living room. Gumby sauntered up and rubbed against my leg and also against Tyler's foot. Tyler was ecstatic! He smiled and giggled at Gumby...and then (this is my favorite part) my still smiling little man looked at me with his wide eyes and eyebrows raised, as if to say, "Did you see that, Mommy?"

OH how my heart melted! His smile will always melt me, but he actually turned and wanted to see if I saw what he saw! How awesome is that?
