The Joys of Parenting
People who say they sleep like a baby usually don’t have one.

This little life, so tiny and cute, is just so perfect. Tiny little fingers and really long toes. A cherub face and sweet cry (so far.)
There is one fault. He has the unfailing capacity to pee on cue. Every cue comes when his diaper is being changed. His aim is impecable as well. Even when we put a cloth over him, he will kick it off, THEN pee on whoever is changing him. He rarely seems to pee in his diaper.
The really funny thing is that it seems like he plans it. Yeah, I know he is too young but he crys and crys while changing his diaper but once he pees on you, he stops crying and just puts his hands on either side of his face like his is saying, “Did I do that?” Too cute for words.
On the other side, my sister may have news and yet she is worried about me being upset if she is able to reunite with her mother while I couldn’t. So, I am officially and publicly saying, I am very happy for this opportunity for her. I think it is awesome that she took this step to try and I wouldn’t wish what I have gone thru on anyone much less the even worse scenarios others have gone thru. So sis, please go forward with my blessing and prayers. Yes I am a little jealous, yes, I wish I could reunite too but that doesn’t mean I wish you wouldn’t and it doesn’t mean that I will love you any less. Like you said, you are my sister even if you have more siblings now.
Oops, sounds like he just got mommy, gotta go.
That is so funny, he will love to hear that story when he grows up.
That is great news for your sister and its so great that not only can you support her but be honest in how you feel at the same time.

Dear Son,your newest son does “take after” you! The only difference-is that you would “shoot” yourself in the face(and you always looked so surprised!).We finally resorted to the CLOTH diaper over the offending member until the “danger”was past-well, it worked most of the time!We’ll see you all soon!LOVE,MOM
Hey Dan, That was funny. Boys A girl would not do that to you. A great story. Congrats!!! He is very cute. Take care. See you soon.
Cheers~
