Three little things that made my night

1) Me telling the older boys how much Connor cried after they left for school.

"He cried for an hour?" asked Xander.

"Umm, not quite that long," I said.  "Maybe six minutes.  But that's a long time for a baby."

"Yeah, 360 seconds!"  Xander replied.

I actually had to think a minute to do the math in my head, he was faster than I was.  And he was right.



2) Looking over their calendars with them last week.  It was the end of January, so of course we just now got around to getting the 2015 calendars (don't judge).  Ari picked Rescue Bots, and Xander Guardians of the Galaxy.  They turned every page to see the pictures and were flabbergasted by their glory.  Their interests are so different than mine were at their ages - I was all about the cute kitty calendars as a girl!



3) At a Havdallah event (end of Shabbat) a few night ago, this two year-old girl really liked Connor.  She chased him around the whole social hall, signing "he mine!" and finally he got upset and crawled under a table.  When we pulled him out, he looked at her, then at me, and signed "all done," even saying the words - "aww duh" - to accompany it!
