Today, my beautiful little Bean turned 2.
I know he doesn’t get a lot of attention on this blog. I wish in real life I could give him more attention too.
He spends a lot of time in the car, a lot of time at appointments that are not for him. A lot of time being told ‘no’ and ‘wait’ and ‘later’.
Let me tell you about a few of the things he likes to do. He likes to sing. He likes to dance. He adores the Wiggles and knows most of the moves to most of their songs. He loves to twirl and twirl around until he gets dizzy and falls and then gets up and does it again. He loves to laugh. He loves to eat bananas and apples and chicken and watermelon and rice-crackers, but not much else. He loves to go to the park and swing, and swing, and swing. He loves to give kisses and cuddles. He loves to watch trains, travel on trains, even to see a train track. He loves to take his brother’s kaye walker for a spin, but always gives it back when his brother wants to use it. He loves to take his father for a walk (fabulously the other evening, all the way to the shops, with his dad already wearing pyjamas). He loves to stand and watch elevator doors opening, clapping at the people who come out like they’ve just won a race. It always makes them smile. He makes a lot of people smile. He makes ME smile.
Thanks for being so beautiful little Bean. And so patient. And so caring. I promise that we will have more time together to do special things for just the two of us.

Happy Birthday my gorgeous boy!!!!
