My Buddy

I have really enjoyed having so much one-on-one time with Eli these last two years. I never got that with Ali and Logan, of course, and it was really special to have it with Eli. He is such a pleasant boy to be around when it is just the two of us. He happily plays most of the day by himself, inviting me to join him occasionally. He likes to help me with the things I am doing. He is a patient and happy errand buddy; I often enjoy an errand more with him that I would without him--a rare statement from a mom indeed! I am trilled we have another little man coming to join our family, but I am grateful for all the time I've had to develop this sweet bond with my Eli while I waited for the time to be right for our new addition.
