I Was Here

There have been a few things that have happened recently that just bring a smile to my face. I don't know why, but cute little random things that my children have done make me happy.

• Last night as I crawled into bed with my socks on, I felt something sticky on one of them. I reached down and pulled off a Curious George sticker that belongs on Nathan's wall. He was having fun with the stickers: taking them off his wall and decorating the rest of the house. I guess I picked one up along the way...
  
• This morning Will and Nathan went to Witt's room after he woke up. Jeff and I snuggled for a minute until I felt a sippy cup in our bed from Will's morning chocolate milk. Normally, a sippy cup in bed would not be so exciting, but it just made me think about how much fun my kids are and that I really enjoy their company.
• My cell phone was lost for a couple of days. I finally found it in a drawer. Nathan has been hiding things lately. It's kind of like a hide and seek that he doesn't even know he's playing. :) He's also hidden my shoes before. It's just a nice surprise to find items in funny locations!
  
• More hide and seek: We couldn't find a DVD that my MIL borrowed from the library. We looked high and low. I finally found it in Will's lunch box! The case fit perfectly in there.
• When my sister and niece were here, my niece was potty training. We haven't gotten around to putting the potty seat away and Nathan has taken a little bit of an interest in it. I was letting him run around the house without a diaper to dry out his hiney because he's had a bought with diarrhea. I found him sitting on the potty seat. He stood up and I almost got excited thinking he had gone to the bathroom in it, until I got a little closer and realized he had put his half-eaten hot dog in the potty!!! LOL! I laughed so hard, I cried! :)

I know these are normal, not so exciting things that all moms and dads run across, but to me they are more like an "I WAS HERE" stamp on my life.
