One night Gavin woke crying as if he had had a bad dream. Shannon went in to check on him as he usually does when he wakes in the middle of the night. He picked Gavin up and held him. Gavin lightly patted Shannon's face, softly said, "daddy" as if to affirm how glad he was that he had come to his rescue and Gavin lightly kissed his cheek before lying his head in the crook of shannon's neck. Shannon was so in love at that very moment he sat down to rock him for a few minutes more. Normally this is a big no-no but just for tonight, he made an exception.
Counting- well sort of
Today I counted Gavin's loops as I put his belt on. I said, "one" he
said "twooo" I said "three, four, five," and he said "siiix." Needless
to say, I was quite surprised. Now hard to say if he will do it again
anytime soon!
A little something else: Gavin called to Shannon
using his name, "Shannon" this afternoon. It was rather humorous,
especially considering I hardly ever call him by that name!
