Last week you turned two, but your older age didn't bring any seriousness to your life.
You are still so goofy, Daniel.
You are so happy and love for us to be happy, too.
Most evenings, we spend 15 minutes or so in your room playing as a family. Often you dump all your puzzles and cars out and we try to sort through one activity at a time with you.
You always want us to play right down on the floor with you.
You would rather play than read books before bed, but sometimes when I read to Elsie, you get jealous and want to get in on the book reading and holding of your sister. So you climb up and say, "Hol- due" to hold her.
And then then hop down and play some more.
Soon after, its time for brushing teeth, potty, books, praying, blankets, binky, and bed. When we tell you this, you dive into bed and pretend to be asleep. But you never last long! We do all the other things together, and usually your father puts you down to sleep at 7:45 PM.
Its very unusual for you to wake before 7 AM these days. We often check in on you around 8, 9, and midnight, and you are snuggled in your bed, usually flat on your stomach, usually cuddled with a stuffed animal, a blanket, or a book. Its so very sweet. We pat your head and kiss you and thank the Lord for you.
