Imagination

It still amazes me how much of a little boy Alec has turned into. It seems like just yesterday that he was as small as Aaron and was so needy. He is still needy of course, just in a different way now...mostly attention! :)

Alec's imagination has just exploded lately! I was watching Emeril the other day and he was cooking with mushrooms. Alec saw them on the tv, ran over to the tv and pretended to pick one off and eat it. I of course laughed and he loved the reaction so he has been doing it ever since any time food is on the tv.

Last night Alec was sitting on the floor by his toys and I was on the couch feeding Aaron. Alec looked down at the ground, pretended to pick something up, and brought the object over to me. When he got to me he put out his hand and said, "I picked you a flower Mommy!" I just about died!! It was SO sweet!! I of course "took" the flower, pretended to smell it and put it behind my ear. He thought this was SO funny and continued to bring me "flowers" all night long.

It is times like this that make me remember how lucky I am to have my boys and what a blessing they are in my life.
